liunx JBOD
by qrange from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6H4W7)
I've been looking for a big JBOD filesystem, but can't seem to find any solution to this particular problem.
I'm trying to 'farm' chia and that involves storing a bunch of very large (100Gb or more, size varies a bit) files that aren't very important.
It doesn't need redundancy but still I don't want to lose the whole array if single drive fails as making those files takes a lot of CPU time.
raid0 doesnt seem to have a 'no striping' option,
zfs too,
lvm might do it, but some say it can't ?
mhddfs can't split file across several mounts.
so what options are there for a JBOD that wouldn't completely fail ?
