[H] Why the Iomega StorCenter = Trash

[tmservo]

I've had four of these in for data recovery in the last year.   The 
problem is, one drive dies, and it almost NEVER puts the raid back in 
order (this is the IX4-200D)   IN fact, it immediately declares all the 
drives foreign and starts demanding to reformat them.

What a POS.   After a data recovery that took almost a week and a half 
to get back 5TB, I can tell you: recovering a shitload of data from a 
broken RAID-5 in a non-standard (XFS) file system is a giant PITA.

That's all.   End of the day complaint.  Businesses who rely on this 
thing for a backup are FOOLS.
