Many year old article on why RAID 0 gets safer than RAID 5 at scale.

It's a big deal knowing that someone like ioSafe will respond to a query here in like hours if not minutes.
Oops.....

LOL. Better late than never.

@scottalanmiller So what would you suggest in my case? RAID 10?

Or RAID 6, but 40 TB might be close on 40 TB. I don't recall what the line is for moving to RAID 7 is.

RAID 7 isn't available on any units like that. So not an option for him. He'd need a SAM-SD to look into that.

RAID 6 can be okay at that size still. Pretty big, but not overly big.

I was wondering... Wonder also if a SAM-SD would cost less ...

Pretty much once you are into rack mount gear, SAM-SD costs less than "store bought." Plus you get more choices, features, flexibility and options like RAID 7.

The Synology box just arrived and now on my table and RAID 7 is a bit too little too late.
