bad drive in R5 at a client prompted another to go down during rebuild, thus nuking the array. Second time in a month (different clients). Whats that? Why do I pitch Raid10?
Better question to ask is why do vendors still pitch R5?

Why do you think that's a raid 10 issue? I'm assuming the drives that went down were a part of the same Raid 1?

It was a RAID 5 array that went bad. RAID10 would have been protected.

So they didn't loose the array on 2 drive failures?

No, they had to let the repair run overnight at boot rather than live for some reason.

Interesting.

I've worked places that did their own internal video hosting for training videos. Worked well.
