AW: Whooda belived this?

Hello,

>  This is NOT what I expect from an iSeries! Can anyone explain a) Why TWO
>drives, in different RAID sets and in different cages, would fail
>simultaneously without external "intervention" and b) Why a single drive
>failure in a RAID set would cause it to fail? Liking this we're not.

we have lost about 12 6718 (17GB) drives during 4 month last year! Including
a mirrored pair inside 4 hours =>
scratch install.

IBM had serious problems with these drives last year. Last september all of
our 20 drives were replaced by IBM.

Regards,

Oliver
