it’s a case where he knows a guy just like Ronald but he’s not naming him, so he’s just talking about “Ronald”

yeah true. I guess what I’m saying is the considerations probably have changed, I seriously doubt RAID is no longer useful though.
3-2-1 is for backup, RAID is also for availability, eg your domain server not going down in case of drive failure. good point though.
yeah but if SSD failing is now less likely that other parts of the machine it might be better to focus on a redundant server to fail over to… it’s an interesting thought. RAID isn’t obsolete I don’t think but it’s an interesting question
I do recall google apparently stopped using raid in some data centres, but it was because they had whole-machine redundancy.
RAID is probably redundant for some of the uses it used to have, like optimising read performance by using many drives (SSD is fast) and honestly I suspect that SSDs are probably more reliable as they don’t have a bunch of platters and bearings and screaming rotational speeds.
So if you needed it for a base level of reliability, an SSD on its own may have exceeded that.
I suspect there are still uses for drive redundancy in some high availability setups… although your friend might be right. If the likelihood of drive failure is lower than other parts in the machine and you need high redundancy for availability it might make more sense to replicate the whole machine rather than the drives.
It’s possible redundancy specifically for the drives was an artifact of unreliable drives back in the day 🤔 they might have a point! I think it’s likely still useful at times though.
I’d rather hotswap a drive than set up a new server, even if it’s a less likely scenario.

tbh though I’d be surprised if they genuinely had no idea, how can their intelligence be so much worse in their own country?

dbilitated@aussie.zoneto World News@lemmy.world•U.S. Gaza ceasefire resolution vetoed by China, Russia at UN Security CouncilEnglish51·1 year agoit’s more, we’ll hold up a ceasefire by adding conditions for Israel while thousands of Palestinians are dying of hunger or simply shot. I think the hostages should be returned but that should simply be another negotiation.
Personally I think the hostage release and condemning the initial act are fine but both sides holding up a ceasefire based on those details is terrible. People are dying at a sickening rate.
