I didn't meant to say we'd have no silent data corruption. OTOH, we cannot have had many of them, since the storage management software itself has another layer of checksumming. What I meant to say is that we likely never had such a scenario described by Zygo, where e.g. broken HDD controller memory would cause corruptions (and which would be then bad in case of auto-RAID-repair- on-read). Cause IMO such memory issues would rather soon be noticed. Cheers, Chris.
