To my knowledge, no readily available controller performs validation on reads (not even for RAID-1 or RAID-10, where it would be pretty straightforward). Something like an Adler32 checksum (not a full CRC) on each page might be helpful. However, what I'd really like to see is something that catches missed writes, but this is very difficult to implement AFAICT. -- Florian Weimer <fweimer@xxxxxx> BFK edv-consulting GmbH http://www.bfk.de/ Kriegsstraße 100 tel: +49-721-96201-1 D-76133 Karlsruhe fax: +49-721-96201-99 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
