Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

M.2 is a form factor. Under that form factor it can run the NVMe or the SATA protocol.
Answered elsewhere in this thread. Yes, I'm aware, but the only real life use case is plugging in nvme drives
There are m.2 sata drives. They have a different pin layout and everything. It depends on what you want out of the QoS of your system and what bottlenecks you have.
Yeah, just then I still think it's the worst of both worlds. You still have a single point of failure, that raid controller on that device probably can't be ported anywhere else (at least most of the cheap controllers I've seen haven't been able to, most mobo raids I've been able to recover), and so if you don't have redundancy anyway, then a larger SSD is to me, the way to go. Honestly a single SSD and a nightly backup to an external would be how I'd do it if I was on a budget and only had one SATA port remaining.
Yeah thats the problem with hardware raid in general.
