Stop buying drives from Toys-R-Us. >You seem to have a consistent problem of believing your experience equals >facts. The change in MTBF stats from 2,000 to 300,000 is not just my experience. You too can pull up a spec sheet and read it. Then you can experience it too. We can all read the stats and make it a shared experience. >If I have a client who lost an entire days work because I chose to >implement a solution that only solved soft errors I would be doing him a >disservice. Taking such a position you would also have to protect them from meteor strikes too. The essence of good management is the ability to properly assess risk. >It was just a few weeks ago that this was exactly the case, a hard drive had >failed hardware wise and the engineering company would have been completely >down had it not been for a RAID.
