[Avid-L2] OT: Backing up a RAID?

 

Edit with a 3 drive RAID 0 12TB volume. Any drive fail, and you lose the
whole RAID. But not to worry, all the original media is still
accessible, right?

Right. But have just discovered the hard way that losing the RAID is
still a royal time-wasting pain in the neck.

Going forward I want to keep backups of the RAID to several individual
4TB drives. Like in the old, old days when we backed up 10MB hard disks
to stacks of floppies. The backup software of that era knew how to split
the backup among a bunch of smaller disks.

In these new, new days, I can't find any backup software that can do
that -- back up a larger volume to a bunch of smaller disks.

Does anyone know of an OSX backup program (GUI or command line) that can
do this??

TIA
