Drives like this are basically going to kill RAID5. We’re just going to have to suck up the write penalty of RAID6 and call it a day.

> Unstructured data growth is doubling exponentially and will propel the digital universe to reach 16 Zettabytes of data by as early as 2017.

I’m impressed that they were doing 7200 rpm when they shipped it, I wonder what they were driving.

I saw a report recently. In that report, Seagate drives had a far larger failure rate then many others.
