Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

It probably would lower the temp because the on-board cpu would no longer be doing the RAID controlling.
All that work would be offloaded to the system CPU and whatever software you use to control the RAID setup (TrueNAS, Proxmox, UnRAID, etc).
Of course this would mean backing up all the data on those drives (which you're already doing, right) and rebuilding the array with the software you choose.
This is exaclty what I think too. But does anyone have tested this and is the theory same as in reality?
Backup up is not an issue of course! Restoring either, 10GB cards at the rescue!
Every circumstance is different, but undoubtedly the RAID cpu temp will drop since it's not doing anything.
Also, it seems the direction today for self holsters is software RAID, which I can get behind because I've had RAID cards die, and when they can't be replaced, you're out of luck.
