So as you know I'm looking at repurposing an old Dell Optiplex 3080 tower as an #OpenBSD server. It's already got 32GB ram and a 1Tb NVME drive. I was thinking about adding some spinning rust for the data drive but I'm unsure whether to just add one hard drive as I'll be doing regular backups to NAS anyway. Or should I spend more purchasing two of the same drives for my usual RAID 1 setup like I did with my #FreeBSD server Beastie ?
Was looking at ways saving some £££ but maybe it's not a good idea ? It would eventually be hosting the following if possible. Snac instance, static website, git with cgit, Radicale, Syncthing and maybe a few more much much later.
