Raid10, must use or another Raid limits?

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but i noticed someone mention Off Site Cloud Storage, thats a good option but depending on the data change rate he will need to consider upload speeds on the connection.
In the UK some of our sites only have 3MB Down and 1MB up
so uploading anything would take a months -

We ran the numbers, it's both not an option due to their tech requirements, but the cost would be way too high. The annual storage would be as much as their capital limits. Even on Wasabi.

That's the speeds I'm getting on AT&T commercial, dedicated, enterprise 50/50 fiber!

@scottalanmiller thought i would mention as it's happened here.
"Lets upload to the cloud" Hold on with the amount and speeds we would be constantly uploading file 24/7 -

"Lets upload to the cloud" Hold on with the amount and speeds we would be constantly uploading file 24/7Yeah, that's a huge issue, too. 170TB even over a 50Mb/s dedicated line isn't fast

I've got a symmetric gig connection in the new office. We could probably make that work.

I have symmetrical 50Mb/s, but I only reliably get 3Mb/s

With that kind of data, it's best to have your data cloud only IMO. Then scaling and backup is easier and likely more cost efficient.
Depends on the data of course!

Nice to know I am not alone. I can get to 100Mb/s for 3 times the price I pay now. Yeah, right!

We run with RAID 6.
Modern RAID controllers have the horsepower and cache RAM that is flash backed to overcome any real parity performance costs.
Rebuild times will be the killer plus some performance cost for a failed disk.

Operationally it would be just fine. It's only recovery time that would be of concern.
