NASLite Network Attached Storage

Hello,

I just installed NasLite into a Small Business environment and so far I am loving it. I am using it to act as our NAS/Digital Asset Management server.

I have Disk-0 holding the installation of NasLite and Disk-1 is a Raid5 array where my users access there information.

I got to thinking if Disk-0 dies, which is single hard-drive, what are my options?

I have all my data safe on a Raid-5 array on Disk-1, but if something happens to Disk-0, which contains the NasLite installation, am I screwed?

So I have a few questions:

1) What are my options if Disk-0 fails?
2) Should I switch to USB Version? Is there any more stability since a USB drive is probably less likely to die?

Thanks!

You don't need to worry about it. If your boot drive fails, make a new boot drive. You can also get a DOM or a CF to IDE to boot from. That way there will be no issues with your boot drive. No matter what you boot from, your data will always be safe.

Thanks for the response!

So far I am loving NasLite and will be posted on a review on my blog next week.
