We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

No one says use raid 0 anymore. That was a mechanical disk thing. SSDs are so fast they can max out the controllers they are hooked up to regularly. There hasn’t really been a need for raid 0 in a decade+.

Maybe raid 5/6/10/etc for servers for disk redundancy / global spares / etc but that’s a different story than zero.
