the speed increases are the nice areas of RAID

with raid 1, you can read really fast. i wonder if that's economical
for mining read-speed-limited cryptocurrencies.

with raid 0, you can write really fast because it's in parallel. _and_
you get tons of space. _but_, you don't get to read really fast. and
you don't get redundancy,

i think if your brain is working, there's a raid with a higher number
that does both raid 1 and raid 0, so you can read fast, an duse a ton
of disks to write fast, and you get failure redundancy.

but_ you still don't get backups with raid, which means if a political
enforcement group brainwashed you never to engage in forensics again,
you'll have trouble recovering your data when you hit the writelimit
of your flash.
