Uh, no....]]> http://www.optiprimus.my/content.php?id=2 Microsoft Zune HDby Christopher Breen, Macworld.com


Blame it on the rain, the resulting muck and mire, or the redwood curtain that separates Cupertino from Redmond, but it appears that news travels very slowly between Apple and Microsoft. How else can you explain this statement from Chris Stephenson—general manager of global marketing for Microsoft Zune regarding the just-announced Zune HD (as quoted by CNET’s Ina Fried)?

Big mistake. You want to save money, but you also want to keep your data. RAID 5 isn’t worth it.

 

What’s the problem?

 

The problem is that RAID 5 only protects against a single disk failure. But SATA drives are spec’d at one Unrecoverable Read Error (URE) every ~12.5 TB.

 

Let’s do the math.
