Make minidiscs cool again!
On a related note. 50-pack of MiniBDRs costs like 25 bucks. Each can hold up to 7.5Gb of data.

@roboneko You don't - you use mkhddfs instead of RAID and restore the files on the failed drive from a backup.
If you try to do a rebuild with 20TB HDD's it's almost certain another drive is going to fail before the rebuild completes.

if you actually had 20 TB on there that's still going to take ... something like a week, I dunno, an ungodly long time anyway
