We are seeing large systems go to Mirroring more and more but even some
small systems. The problem of course is that as you increase the number
of loops, buses, cards, power supplies and drives you statistically
increase the chances of a failure. It's also normally true that the
larger the system the more people there are that depend on it and
therefore the cost for it to be down is higher. So it becomes more and
more important to mirror (correctly I might add!) than to RAID your
disks as the systems get larger. You don't reduce the chance of a
failure but you reduce the chances that a failure will hurt. Poorly done
mirroring only costs you more hardware and affords little additional
protection.

Maybe with some serious mirroring design way up the bus level... is that
