Much thanks to Scott & Marcus re: a seamless disk replacement and file system
restoration. Curious: In this day & age, why does a disk go bad? (Maybe
it watched TV before age 2? ;-)

Disks go bad then they've been used a bunch. Grex really REALLY uses
its disks. The last two /a disks have lasted about two to three years.
This last one lasted 24,000 hours, but was one of the most heavily used
disks on Grex. Grex pushes everything to its limits; disks will continue
to die faster with us than in a home situation. The huge mean time between
failure numbers that you see today are all theoretical calculations, and
not the same conditions that Grex puts on things.

I've always wondered what relationship to reality those numbers have.

For most purposes, they aren't bad. But something like Grex is just
too strange. ;-)

is that it? i had always thought of grex as something more like
reality's holding tank. :)

If you're having problems with reality, I can recommend you a good
realtor.

As long as said realtor is not named Ed, I need some reality advice.

Is it just me, or did this discussion take a sudden turn somewhere in the
mid-20's? *grin*

You're right... just goes to show how reluctant people are to talk about this
issue.

What's "Surovell", and what does that have to do with anything?

There is a large real estate agency named Edward Surovell Realty in Ann Arbor.
(That's all I know.)
