RAID vs No RAID choice

[donald.m.motsinger]

may I draw your attention to this thread?

Raid 5 failed. 3TB node dead. Recovered partially and going through GE thanks to forum

Not much to say here, had a drive fail during pandemic lockdown, but the raid, although degraded, kept working. Today got to replacing the bad drive. Upon rebuild, another drive failed. RIP 3TB of data. RIP escrow. I had 100% reputation on all sattelites It has been a good run!
