[QUOTE="Larry, post: 749268, member: 785"] Hard drives unlikely to to be a Dell issue. All brands use many of the same disks, there are a limited number of disk manufacturers. Same as IBM storage, HP storage, EMC storage etc use many of the same disks. Sometimes the implementation can brings issues to the forefront. We once had a mid tier storage system from IBM lose eight drive over night. They were all the same make an model, they were all Toshiba disks. The excuse? Bad microcode, luckily the design was such that we didn't lose any data and all the arrays stayed online and "healthy" for want of a better word. Short of it was though, despite an emergency change to the microcode on the disks, IBM still opted to remove all the Toshiba disks from all our storage arrays.... [/QUOTE]
