Can I replace my D5-300 without losing my datas on a RAID0 config?

Post by fred »

Hello,
I have to replace my D5-300 because it can't connect to computers anymore. I have 5 8Tb HDD in a RAID0 configuration. These HDD work are ok, so all my data are still there. Is there a possibility for changing only the D5-300 with a new one without losing all data?

Thanks

Why not a Raid5 or 6, at least you have the security that your data is safe, even when one HDD stops working.
Raid 5 - one HDD can fail. Raid6 - 2 HDD's can fail.
Raid0 is only for the Speed but if one HDD fails, everything is lost

It means that the 5 HDD are in RAID0 configuration and that doesn't depend on the D5-300 configuration itself?

RAID 0 is RAID 0, it always works in the same way, no matter which device.
