I’d appreciate a sanity check for what I’m planning to do later today.

I bought a minisforum um890 recently. It has 2 m.2 nvme ports. I have the system running nobara off one drive currently, the other is unfilled. The drive has file system encryption enabled.

I backed up the root folder of my system to a 128gb usb using backintime. I enabled encryption when asked.

I plan to install a second ssd, enable raid 0 striping on the 2 drives in bios, boot from a live USB, then install nobara onto the new raid storage.

After that, i should be able to reinstall backintime then restore my backup right?

    Nice!

    Thanks for the info.

    Been eying one for quite a while. I have read that the build quality is good too. Along with a good cooling solution.

    I’m actually thinking of using it as a replacement for my desktop/gaming machine. I only play 1 or 2 games anyway. Nothing the 780m can’t handle with ease. Also planning on 24/7 operation due to the much lower wattage.
