OTOH, I had a perfectly good drive get kicked out of my RAID-1 array a fewyears ago just because, well, I guess I could say "it felt like it". In reality, I had (in my ignorance) purchased a pair of WD drives that aren't intended to be used in a RAID array, and once in a long while (that was actually the only such instance in the 4-5 years I've had that RAID array) it doesn't respond to some HD command or other and gets dropped. turned out to be easy to reinsert it and it ran for a long time thereafter without trouble. I can dig for the info on the drives and the nature of the problem if anyone wants to see it.
