Why?
Consider this simple case: A two-drive mirrored array.
Use two dual-ported drives, two controllers, two power supplies,
arranged roughly as follows:
-- controller-A <=> disk A <=> controller-B --

\ /
\ disk B /
Remind us where the single point of failure is in this arrangement?
disk backplane?
