Has RAID failed you?

I’ve seen posts in the Comments of a few RAID NAS reviews that complain of failed recoveries. In some cases, the RAID array suddenly becomes available, but there is no drive failure and the array needs to be rebuilt, destroying all data. In other cases, there is an actual drive failure, but the array becomes unavailable and data is again lost.

Has something like this happened to you? Has RAID let you down? Let me know by posting a Comment below. No registration is required. Thanks!
