Sometimes you have to go slow to go fast—with 60 hard drives on 1 Raspberry Pi, I found a way to make it run in RAID! It’s not the fastest storage server in town, but it’s good for about 70 MB/sec write speeds and sucks down about 500 Watts of...

Finally, with a bit of help from some Broadcom engineers, I got full hardware RAID working on a Raspberry Pi. And I actually used SAS drives this time. Special thanks to Broadcom for sending me a controller card and storage backplane to test on the Pi, and for their...

Can you use an enterprise-grade SAS RAID card in the Raspberry Pi? That’s the question I try to answer in this video. There is a lot more data that I didn’t cover in the video, but I cover in the Raspberry Pi PCI Express Card Database website:...
