Good hardware for mdadm

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I like mdadm and I am using it many years. But in my opinion it has one
disadvantage: when the MBR of the boot-disk is corrupt, the machine will
not boot.

A bios could check this. Wait for some kind of signal from Grub or
Linux, and after a timeout boot from another disk. But I don't know
about a bios with that feature.

A PCIe card could do something like that, but I don't know about such a
PCIe card.

Is there such hardware?
What do you do to avoid this problem?

With regards,
Paul van der Vlis.
