Its almost good as intel's 64GB X25-E support when we asked why did 8 of the 150 we rolled out failed within the first year there answer was send it back to us and we will investigate. Summerised Answer: " These drives were found to have defected parts a replacement drive will be sent out to you"
1. Always have a few hand full of drives spare.
2. Always have different batches in place if possible.
3. Always have rotations in any array of disks when servicing any slave storage node
Please tell me how having a support team for failed drives plays any part of actually maintaining and sustaining any array in house? Any sysadmin won't place the odd's in the hands of the "Enterprise" Support? Let me guess I take it you also know the fact that the Australian market literally has the worse "enterprise" support market when it comes to any SSD based arrays?
