And, with ZDayZ around the corner, my director goes and invites my fiance and myself to dinner on the 18th. WTF? With the server in a critical status, I can't take off any days. Do I go to ZDayZ that Saturday morning for a half day? Tell the boss's boss I am sick and go to ZDayZ all Saturday?

too many difficult decisions!

You had to go to work early because you lost a single disk in an array? No hotspares ftw?

Small array?

I would have told him immediately that I already had plans to be out of town. If the server status affects your vacation time, then you may be screwed either way. But to me, the hardest decision is how to tell your boss you won't be doing anything with him or work this weekend. ZDayZ no question

Small array?

We have a small, 3-drive RAID 5 and keep a spare drive on hand

I can't wait until these prone-to-fail-spectacularly mechanical hard drives have gone the way of the dodo

I want a 5 TB SSD

Join the club! lol.

The largest of my arrays has 146 disks in it. We don't have failures very often, but when they do happen in the middle of the night, it's usually half way rebuilt on a hotspare before I wake up to read the alert email anyway.

Haven't had any of the big NL-SAS drives fail yet thank GOD *KNOCK ON WOOD*, those will surely take for freakin ever to rebuild.
