"When an error is found on a desktop edition hard drive, the drive will enter into a deep recovery cycle to attempt to repair the error, recover the data from the problematic area, and then reallocate a dedicated area to replace the problematic area. This process can take up to 2 minutes depending on the severity of the issue...." Or in other words: "When an error occurs on a desktop drive, the drive will refuse to realize the sector is bad, and retry forever and ever without even increasing SMART counters, so that even if Western Digital Data LifeGuard Diagnostics need to spend 36 hours to test a drive (as opposed to the normal 5-ish hours for a 2TB 7k2 drive), WD will refuse return of the drive because IT WORKS". Or in yet other words: "Desktop drives aren't meant to be used for anything productive or important."

Det er et elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med fremmed opprinnelse. I de fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer på norsk. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
