As title states. I'm looking for a drivebender replacement. I've been eyeing drivepool and it's probably what I'm going with but I'd like to know what else might be out there. This is for a JBoD setup. Backups happen to offsite location, so I'm not worried about backups.

I don't really need speed. RAID is for people who like to spend money on same size/speed drives

    Most RAID levels are for redundancy, not speed and software RAID doesn't need drives of the same size.

    The RAID I'm talking about requires same size and speed of drives to be optimal. Otherwise it goes with the smallest and slowest drive in the array.

    You talking about unraid?
