Hi all,
Just got myself the HP ProLiant MicroServer deal.
Currently I have an internal 2tb and 2x2tb external drives.
As two of the drives are getting full it's hard to back them up.
So I'm planning to crack open the two external drives and place them in the server along with the internal.
My next step is to join two of the drives together to form one 4TB drive and then somehow backup that 4TB to the spare 2TB on a nightly basis (using some epic compression I'd imagine).
I've never done this sort of thing before and tbh getting the server is taking the plunge a bit! So I'd appreciate any advice (on a pretty much noob level) as to what OS I need to be installing and how to configure the drives (links would also be greatly appreciated).
Ta,
Tom
