Before this discussion goes into the idea that RAID is not a backup, which I am well aware of:
(And knowing at one time even Seagate themselves sold a backup plus fast! product that was configured with two disks as RAID 0 out of the box... go figure, right? true story.)
The idea being considered is to maybe start using an older Terastation as an offline backup of an active online Buffalo NAS. The data isn't anything mission critical, it is very infrequently accessed data that is in the process of being taken offline. Yet it is data that sill should be backed up on occasion.
That said, are any of you out there are using any Buffalo NAS unit itself (not external drives connected to them) for online or offline backups?
And how reliable have they been for you?
