It’s a software RAID integrated in the filesystem, as I understand it. This video helped me understand it a bit more and it’s why I’m saying ZFS is a better idea. afaik you get the good parts of raid and some more. Obviously I have very superficial knowledge on all of this though, so I recommend doing your own reading :P

Of course not everyone in any of those countries is mindrotten, but that’s like #NotAllMen, it’s not about the individual, but the “culture”.

I don’t know if I agree with radical policies like what the parent comment proposes though.
