Rant

Same Old

So, if you have a drive failure in a RAID-5 set, what is the probability that another drive will fail while you are backing the data up?

All those who answered "one" go to the head of the class.

There is, apparently, a way to fix this, since the second failure was a transient glitch and the drive actually works. However, it involves scary things that I haven't done before.

Grumble grumble.

I've posted a cry for help in the appropriate newsfroup, and I'll see what happens.
