Am 24. Jul, 2007 schw�tzte Shawn Badger so:
That is why it is nice to have the mirror and the data replicated to another
disk. But what are the chances of loosing 3 disk on the same system within
such a short time frame that you would not be able to replace a single disk
that failed? The only time I have ever heard of loosing more than one disk
in a day has been due to some type of power surge that usually fried the
server has well.
Ah, but are you sure you can get to it the same day?
If it's in a datacenter at work it should be easy, except maybe over a
long weekend...
If it's in a telco station in the boonies or driving around Mars you're
not in good shape to just hop out and pop in a new drive :).
In any case, we can leave all these questions for the people who're
actually needing to double mirror things.
/me pats his RAID 5 and remembers to keep working on his offsite backups.
