I'd suggest your current unRAID server will not let you down for photos as well (assuming you're using a parity drive or two) as for your video streaming. So which is better? That surely is a question that each person must answer for themselves.
unRAID uses separate data disks each having its own intact and mountable file system which can be used without unRAID if/as needed, thus minimizing data loss without getting wild with numerous Vdevs each having their own parity disk(s). FreeNAS can deliver more read and write throughput than unRAID because it uses multiple same-size disks together for read & write operations, as opposed to unRAID using one drive at a time.Įach drive in a FreeNAS Vdev generally is a member of a specialized pool of data, and none can stand on its own if something really goes awry. UnRAID requires only that your parity drive(s) be at least as large as your largest data drive, and all other data drives are whatever sizes you have available to use. To me it isn't worth the cost of higher CPU resources and requiring same size hard drives in each Vdev (array) to use FreeNAS over unRAID. ZFS (not just FreeNAS) offers features unRAID does not for data integrity and recovery, and unRAID offers some FreeNAS does not. The server OS and configuration makes little difference in that case as far as best file protection goes.

If something fails, you fix it and copy over any lost data. Read reviews, compare customer ratings, see screenshots, and learn more about Backup to Picasa for iPhoto. You're planning on using your server as a backup, which means you have another copy of all your files elsewhere.
UnRAID uses one or two parity drives just like FreeNAS and ZFS can. I thought, ooh, I don’t know if I like that… but, it dawned on me that this could be a good feature if you are trying to backup a lot of your flickr photos and their metadata.I'm not sure there's any basis for complaint on the speed front since most photos are a few dozen MB at best. However, if you then add the photo back into the Flickr set, a brand new original-sized copy is downloaded and imported into your iPhoto library (so now you’ll have 2 copies of the same photo). The photo is removed from the Flickr album but is not deleted from the Library. It seems that if the photo is removed from the set on Flickr, all ties to the ‘flickr album’ on iPhoto are broken, and any title/desc/tag changes on Flickr do not get synced back to iPhoto. I wondered what would happen if I removed a photo from the set on Flickr (but not on iPhoto), hoping that it wouldn’t delete the photo from iPhoto (as that is what happens if you change your mind and delete the photo on Flickr… the photo is deleted in iPhoto as wellremoved from the Album in iPhoto). Any changes to the photos in that set are reflected in your iPhoto library. Losing one-of-a-kind family photos can be extremely painful, and in some documented. They can get mangled by a crashed hard disk and be lost forever. They can become mysteriously corrupted and subsequently unopenable. I’ve just come across an interesting “feature” of the iPhoto ’09 Flickr integration.Īs background, when you upload photos from iPhoto ’09 to Flickr, the photos are put into a new set on Flickr, and that set is then set to sync with iPhoto. They can be accidentally deleted with a slip of your pinkie.
