hi i just have a really newbie question coz im kinda confused about jbod.... im planning to buy another HDD for my rig since the hdd that im using right now is about to be full.. im using a seagate 1tb hdd as of the moment and i wanna a 2tb seagate barracuda and i just wanna put it in my rig as an independent hdd so i can have additional storage capacity.. my questions are:
1. will it be a JBOD setup? and if it is, is it true that if one of the disk fails all of your date will be gone?
2. can i just install the hdd as it is.. i mean like connecting the sata cable to the mobo and the power cable to the hdd and let it be just another drive in my computer so that if my original hdd fails i still have the 2nd hdd to use...
thanks in advance mates!
cheers!
