I am building a NAS in RAID 1 (Mirror) mode. Should I buy 2 of the same drive from the same manufacturer? or does it not matter so much?

    So you’re saying I should be running JBOD with backups instead of RAIDz1? You’re probably right.

      As long as you’re ok with it being way less dependable, and having to rebuild it from scratch more often 😉.
