Introducing FlexRAID: www.flexraid.com
As a typical [H]TPC user, I ended up writting a RAID software since nothing out there fit my needs.
Things I was looking for were:
- Parity data protection (of course)
- No need to run a specialized OS
- No need for additional hardware
- Ability to turn off my hard disks when not in use
- Use hard drives of any size in the RAID
- Lot of flexibility
Well, as I wrote FlexRAID, I got all that and then some.
As stated on the website, FlexRAID is not meant to obsolete other RAID solutions. Rather, it provides one more option to consider among many.
I find it specially ideal for those of us backing our movies and other media content to hard drive.
