This was my point. They have stated that these are two separate boxes and the problem with both of them were the arrays failing........
It is pretty amazing to me not only these odds, bu that they wouldn't have a drive on standby to hot-swap in.
You cant run an array like this for years and just expect that a drive will never go out.
Are we just assuming this is a RAID-5 setup?

I was just guessing. Raid 5 would be the cheapest if you wanted a lot of spindles. However, I don't know what they got going on.
I am not suprised they didn't have a hot spare. Remember, this is a not for profit operation not a cooperation.
