After having a small hiccup a few months ago, my server's second hard drive is definitely faulty again. It seems to fix itself after a reboot, which is strange.

Well, I'm not gonna trust it any longer. Did anyone ever deal with a hard drive failure in a dedicated server? How is that usually handled?

Is there some sort of software #RAID I could set up to protect the first (ext4) drive?

I know they should've been a RAID in the first place, but they're not.
