@cthos@mastodon.cthos.dev (unrelated to your immediate comment: I might look into using M-DISC blurays for photos and other critical data since they seem to be relatively inexpensive and the 100 GB capacity is reasonable for photography RAWs.)

I suppose I should look up the read/write rate of these drives to see whether my use cases would benefit from the higher read/write perf, now that you bring this up. If there's no real difference for what I'm doing, the RAID6 makes more sense since I'm fine with only 12 TB of usable space. If I definitely need the performance, though, then it might be RAID10 is the only way to go. That, and look into the optical media backup since that's cheaper than the parts I need for the server rebuild.
