Unfortunately, RAID1 will not help in the case the hard disk returns
random data but fails to report an error.
Erroneus read data cannot be corrected in any way, so that's all in the
game. And that only corrupts a few files while a complete hard disk
crash just looses you entire info. And if I understand you correctly,
RAID1 *does* protect you againt that. Moreover the CRC checks on hard
disk makes it report an error before it get's the chance of reading the
wrong info.
Hmm, I think I want a RAID in my new PC.
