Hello Hello,

I will soon be building a new server for my home office. I do various consulting jobs and have access to data that my customers consider highly personal or private, some of which I've signed NDA's in order to have access to. The current server stores my client data, various source code files, but it also doubles as my personal data store. All my personal projects along with videos and pictures, audio files and everything that all of us parents and geeks would want to store.

My new hardware will have multiple drives in a raid configuration. I have not completely decided on how that will be configured. I would like your opinions on the best methods of securing a server. I am not against having to type in an encryption passphrase each time the machine boots, but as it will be headless, I'd really rather not, but hoping beyond setup I will not need to reboot it often it is an option.

What options should I consider for protecting the data on the hard drives and still provide some sane level of usability from a workstation somewhere else?

I appreciate your thoughts!

Nathan
