died it caused corruption elsewhere. I have also seen (a couple of times) a controller go bad and proceed to write garbage all over the disks. The mirroring worked quite well - we had a very nice file system full of mirrored garbage.
Does this mean software RAID is actually safer than hardware RAID? (Since the OS and processor is usually more reliable than a disc controller).
