Ok so one of my HDDs in my RAID 1 tanked the other day. This give me pause to kinda look at my current hardware solutions. Basically, I've not been very pleased with my RAID setup. First, mirror is inherently slower than other options so my read/write times kinda suck. So what I'm looking at now is to do multilevel incremental backups in addition to cloning the drive on a reasonably frequent basis. Cloning is easy since it's all just clonezilla and I'll do it to a second internal HDD. As for backups, I'm looking for a solution that flags new/deleted/changed files and keeps the backup updated, though not with historical versions of the files since I generally don't go looking for old versions of files and I don't have that kind of storage. So what I really need is good tools, preferably free, which can handle a proper multilevel backup.
