I've had naslite running very happily for many years :D
I've been backing up the naslite data onto an external drive of another machine that is now going coming off the network.

I have 4 drives in the box, of varying sizes that I've added to over the years. Now, to mirroring. I can mount my external usb drive and mirror disk-0, ok, but what about the other 3 drives? There is plenty of space on the usb external drive so space isn't an issue. am I able to partition the drive into 4 so that I can mirror the four current drives? If so, how?

If that isn't possible, is there another way of creating a backup contained within the naslite? I would prefer not to use another machine to drive manage the backup as I'm not consistently using any one.

Many thanks,

Andy :-)

There is no functionality in NASlite to mirror multiple drives/folders to a single drive. That can however be implemented as incremental backups from the client-side using 3-rd party software. Although you'll likely see a performance hit due to network bandwidth.

Hope that helps.

Tony.
