    Overkill
    5 Stars
    Overkill
    Probably the most overkill I will ever go for simply storing NVR data. I run Frigate NVR and plan to put 2 of these in a raid0 mirror on a QNAP. I have never had a use for raid0 but I think on an NVR it'll be fine. Odds of raid0 failing at the same time I need to pull data off is so small.That being said this drive is so absolutely overkill for my little home setup. And I love it.
