I'm looking to build a couple of RAID6 backup servers (6x 3TB drives, ~10TB or so usable) and want to encrypt the complete raid devices for a bit of extra peice of mind.
Obviously this adds extra complexity if there is ever a bad block on the RAID and wont be so easy to restore filesystem damage, is LUKS/dm-crypt generally reliable? I'll be using CentOS 6 and mdadm raid as performance isn't important.
If you have encrypted data on *nix systems what do you use?
Cheers
