Thanks Guys,<br />
All I needed to know!

I have a RAID 10 setup with 4x 80GB SATA disks and a hardware RAID controller.<br />
A few weeks a go we lost a disk and then a few days after that we lost another. &nbsp;I replaced <br />
the disks and rebuilt the array...everything was fine.<br />
<br />
My question is - was I lucky?<br />
Can you afford to lose any 2 two disks in a RAID 10 setup<br />
or does it depend on which combination they go bang?!<br />
<br />
Cheers.

RAID 10 Question

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
