Yup! I agree, Carey. I love living on a big San now with redundancy, global spares that automatically rebuild when there's a drive failure.

We did find that Lacies, especially power supplies, did fail more than G Drives, but we've had G Drives fail, too. 

So if it spins, it will eventually die. Buy an LTO for overnight back-ups and you'll sleep better. :)
