Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anyone could advise on installing/setting up RAID within Mint, it'll be used within NextCloud in the longrun.
Thanks.

Re: Nextcloud Installation on Mint - Creating RAID Setup's
If you can spare the cash, I use and highly recommend hardware RAID. You can pick up a single HW RAID card for under $US60, this for example, but you'll need to buy two SAS to SATA connector cables. Or this one for under $US80 including two cables. The 6805T cards are brand new, UEFI compatible and bootable. No fuss, no mess; just plug your disks in, create the array in the card's BIOS and format the partition.
