Hi,
I plan on converting my WHS server to Ubuntu soon. It currently has 2x 1.5tb drives. I would like to mimic Folder Duplication using Rsync or something similar, as I don't have a RAID card.
I am wondering on a few things:
1. Should I use LVM?
2. How should I partition and mount my drives? I am thinking maybe 15-20gb off of my first drive for system (mounted on /), and the remaining partition would be mounted to /home. My second drive could be mounted under /backup or something.
I'm just looking for recommendations as I haven't done anything like this - only reason I want to switch to Ubuntu is for learning purposes.
Thanks in advance!
