    Frank, you can always pair up with someone like you.

    If you keep each other's drives, it would be a zero-sum game space-wise and both of you will have additional security.

    The Infrant Readynas NV+ uses XRaid. You can start with just two drives and go up to four. With four 1TB drives you'd net 3TB, with only 2 1TB drives you'd net 1TB. I have one and love it. Built like the proverbial brick shithouse.

    Marko -- Yeah but what's your life expectancy and how will your heirs treat mine? and vice versa!

    Also, I am running these $119 500 gb drives and yep, they're slow. I will probably be copying stuff once and leaving it on them forever....

    Once the issue comes down to that, it could only mean that the ideal of finding lifetime storage has been reached. Anything after that point won't matter, at least not from my perspective.

    That's what the nights are for - have them earn their keep while you're away.
