Rumor - 4TB hard drive from Hitachi

Nobody ever said that RAID Level 0 was redundant. Who removed the R, someone on the internet?
 
According to whom? Did LSI, Intel, IBM, etc. get the message?
 
At one point I built a(n) (R)AID-0 from 8 2TB WD Green drives. Worked it hard for about two weeks without issue, before I chickened out and went RAID-10 ;)
 
Come off it -- Everyone here should know what Raid 0 is. There should not be any confusion, at least from the regulars.

My IBM 75GXPs were up for over a year. ::cyclop:
 
I still have a bunch of 45GB 75GXP's that I pulled out of service because they were just too small nowdays. They were very reliable for I have yet to get one that has failed.
 
My boot drives are almost always plain old 250GB SATA drives or 80GB SSDs, LM. The assumption I make when I set up a system is that there will be at least five hard disks in it. The other four will be as ginormous as I can afford and they will be used in some kind of array.
So that's one, it would be nice, two mights, and a porno server - except nix on the porno server.

So a total of three people who aren't booting and have no need to boot from these drives who are interested in the ability to do it. That is, nobody.

In the future, sure, people will be be booting from giant drives. But not now or in the very near future. These are for storage only.
 
I'm already in withdrawal from hard drives. I don't know if I can make for 6 months without any new ones. :(
