We have a disk fail about once a month, on average I think. Most in the bigger/newer RAID6 arrays, surprisingly rarely in RAID1 or RAID5, but they're usually smaller and older drives. Modern 2/4/6Tb SAS drives are a lot more prone to failure than ancient Compaq (9/18/36Gb drives:-)
I'm on a roll! three 6TB and two 4TB within the last two months. One 4TB went out yesterday. Disappointing. BTW, no data lost, all arrays were many-disk RAID6. Regards, Lew -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
