Hello,<br>
<br>
I am configuring my new backend, I want to know if there is any real<br>
performance if I create a RAID 1 disk to store the recordings and<br>
livetv files.<br>
<br>
I don't worryed about data lose, by the way, there are just TV programs.<br>
<br>
I will appreciate your experience on RAID systems.<br>
<br>
Best regards.<br>
