2 TB expansion drive. I am not sure if the Seagate Expansion Drive is known for its reliability, but the price was right. Now I am wondering about the possibility of duplicating the drive and creating a Raid 0 system to help ensure data security.
Does anyone run multiple hard drives on the rock? Do you have a raid system?
Speed of throughput is not essential as I don't have massive amounts of data, but some data integrity and security would be nice.

Well technically it is not raid, but I have 2 8tb USB drives connected to my Rock64 running libreelec for media.
I run Rsync every night between the drives creating an almost raid 1.
The up side is that I don't have to deal with traditional software raid issues. The down side is that anything added in the last 24h could be lost.
As I can live with loosing a movie or two, I accepted that.
At the current level of development, I would not feel safe with my data spread over more than 1 drive with Raid 0.
