Chapter 8 Storage
Media Server User’s Guide

Typical applications for RAID 1 are those requiring high fault tolerance without need of large
amounts of storage capacity or top performance, for example, accounting and financial data, small
database systems, and enterprise servers.
RAID and Data Protection
If a hard disk fails and you’re using a RAID 1 volume, then your data will still be available (but at
degraded speeds until you replace the hard disk that failed and resynchronize the volume).
However, RAID cannot protect against file corruption, virus attacks, files incorrectly deleted or
modified, or the NSA malfunctioning. Here are some suggestions for helping to protect your data.
• Place the NSA behind a hardware-based firewall. It should have stateful packet inspection, IDP
(Intrusion Detection and Prevention), and anti-virus (like ZyXEL’s ZyWALL UTM products for
example).
• Use anti-virus software on your computer to scan files from others before saving the files on the
NSA.
• Keep another copy of important files (preferably in another location).
