A while ago, one of the 2 disks in a RAID1 in one of my servers started erroring out. I went to the datacenter, took it out, restarted the machine, now the second disk started showing errors. WTF?
I come home, sit at my pc, and hear very loud CLICK CLICK CLICK. One of the 2 disks in my workstation RAID1 gave up.
*is happy to have been redundant on all fronts* (yes, I also have separate backups of both machines)
The brand of all 3 disks is… Maxtor. Maybe I should spend the extra buck and get Seagate instead.
