Excellent tutorial it was very easy to follow, the only difference i had was that when using fdisk i didn't have "Linux raid autodetect (fd)" I substituted "Linux Raid (29)"
Subscribed your channel. You are very kind and explained each and every part of the commands you write. I was searching for a video to create a RAID with 2 dedicated drives and isolate my os drive. This is what i looking for. Thanks a lot, for this video.
Very well-done sir! I learned a ton. I would like to have my Linux boot disk mirrored like you did the aditional 2 hard drives in your system. Is it possible to do this in Linux? I have looked around but find no info on this. Thanks
so say if i wanted 6 8TB HDD in raid 1 i would put raid-devices=6 /dev/hdd0 /dev/hdd1 /dev/hdd2 /dev/hdd3 /dev/hdd4 /dev/hdd5 then everything past /dev/hdd0 would be redundant onto it?
A lot of this info was useful until you used the gui to format and mount the raid volume. I am using ubuntu server with only the terminal interface. It would be helpful if you did all of it from the terminal interface.
Hi, thank you for this insightful tutorial. But something happened to me while I was testing this when I removed one of the disks, the name of my logical volume change from /dev/md0 to /dev/machine-name:0 what should be the reason ?
thx, i will try to make raid 1 with 2 HDD 1to... just to know, ne need to put the OS in this volume ? i just want to make a data volume in raid and OS system on another one HDD (linux OS on C, and RAID 1 on D + E)
First time with Ubuntu so not sure if I'm missing something but I am only getting half of my 4GB drives partitioned after the "sudo fdisk /dev/sdb" input following all the steps after. Any tips?
Does anyone know if you can use a USB drive for the boot drive? I've been watching lots of videos to see where the OS is located. I think with Unraid the OS is located on a USB drive that lives permanently in one of your USB ports.
Sir your video is good , But as a novice .... I want to do it .... Sir I connected two physical hdd of 4TB each , and I directly connected to a desktop with a bootable pendrive medium loaded with Ubuntu22 latest server OS , I wanna make it Raid1 with mirroring So I had selected custom install first , So it is showing the hardrives are in brts format Now what to do sir 2)Also after watching this video I got gut feeling that i could have also made like this ..... !! But the problem is after making raid1 mirroring ... can I install Ubuntu22 latest server OS after making RAID1 ? PLEASE advise and Answer 1 & 2

Fantastic!
Easy to follow, slow enough to understand and practical example after that.
Well done, very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
You are an amazing teacher! I really appreciate how thoroughly you explain everything. You gained a new subscriber!
As a rather newcomer to linux this was pure gold. Thank you!
One of the best, and I've watched many vids on setting up a Linux RAID. Thank you for taking the time.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you, just setup a raid 1 of my OS drive using this and rsync with cron (3 copies of the OS).
Thank you so much man!
Glad it helped!

Hello. Congratulations for the video. How do you manage to simulate the disk failure (minute 8:17 of the video)? Thanks.
Thank you, now I can move all our files from iphone to the server !!!! My wife loves taking pictures of the grandchildren !!!!
Very good teaching,,
Thank you very much
Damn, you made it look so easy. I will have to try this.
Thanks for the video.
Welcome
Very good explanation, thank you.
thanks what i was looking for! what do you think about BTRFS for mirroring ?
Hello!
How to transfer my /home folder to this new raid disk?
Thanks
so say if i wanted 6 8TB HDD in raid 1 i would put raid-devices=6 /dev/hdd0 /dev/hdd1 /dev/hdd2 /dev/hdd3 /dev/hdd4 /dev/hdd5 then everything past /dev/hdd0 would be redundant onto it?
@@hystorycal8467 yep, tho 6 drives are a lot for raid 1, maybe have 3 offline and ready, and start with 3 drives in the raid array
great video..! but i have one question what if i dont have GUI access, i want to perform all operations by CLI only?
Grande bro,me has salvado la tarea!!
what formatting option would you use if you wanted access from both linux and windows?
Windows is more permissive when it comes to recognizing file formats. So go with exFat
Don't we have to "remove" the failed drive from the array? What if the new hdd has different /dev/xxx e.g. based on your video sdd instead of sdc?

Indeed, Thank you very much!
You're very welcome!
What are the system requirements for mdam in a raid 1 mirror?
when you look at --detail, its gives you major and minor. what does this refer to?
Does anyone know if you can use a USB drive for the boot drive? I've been watching lots of videos to see where the OS is located. I think with Unraid the OS is located on a USB drive that lives permanently in one of your USB ports.
Perfect, thank you!
You're welcome!
how to create a raid 1 for the already existing boot drive?
This is something I´ve been looking for a long time, I wonder if this can be applied for an already boot driver too!
Sir your video is good , But as a novice .... I want to do it ....
Sir I connected two physical hdd of 4TB each , and I directly connected to a desktop with a bootable pendrive medium loaded with Ubuntu22 latest server OS ,
I wanna make it Raid1 with mirroring
So I had selected custom install first , So it is showing the hardrives are in brts format
Now what to do sir
2)Also after watching this video I got gut feeling that i could have also made like this ..... !! But the problem is after making raid1 mirroring ...
can I install Ubuntu22 latest server OS after making RAID1 ?
PLEASE advise and Answer 1 & 2
hello, may i know how if the PC is broken ? how can i get my file back?
Hi! What I have to do if fail os hd?
Thanks for the tutoriel!
You bet!
Great video thanks! And what about to INSTALL the full linux system on a RAID1 / RAID10 sistem?
You will need Hardware Raid for that
When installing Ubuntu Desktop, can you create a raid1 to install Ubuntu on?
Not in the way I show in this video. You have to create a HW Raid 1 to be able to install an OS on it. I will make a video soon on this. So stay tuned
does this persist after reboot. do they need to be added to /etc/fstab?
It's a permanent configuration
Will you show us how to create a shared folder with multiple users to access to it with password restriction. Thank you very much.
The best, ty!
thank you!
Thanks sir!
Most welcome!
Perfect! Thank you.
You're welcome!
