BTRFS RAID or AMD-RAID (from motherboard) ?

GreyXorB to Data Hoarder@selfhosted.forumEnglish · 1 year ago

Hello

I’m building a machine that will run kubernetes to store my data via nextcloud. I have 3 SSDs. One of 1TB for the system and two of 4TB for my data. On these two 4TO SSDs I want to make a RAID1 and now I have the option of either using the RAID mode of my motherboard (AMD-RAID Hardware) Asrock B650M Pro RS. Or create a software RAID1 via BTRFS (from Arch Linux).

How do I know if the hardware RAID is right? What do you recommend?
