Two new ZDNet Robin Harris sources added today including: http://www.zdnet.com/article/has-raid5-stopped-working

Geezz.. could that be any more muddled?

All the muddling was sarcasm. He's pointing out just how dramatically it stopped working.

But then he goes on to say that he still uses it, sure he mentions that you need to have two copies of the data, but that just muddies the water and stupid people will use the article to allow them to continue to use it in ways the author doesn't intend - like production in an office.

We need to add the mantra "Backup is not RAID."

It's a very old one, must have been missed. Tagged now.

@scottalanmiller Need to post this at least once a month over at Spiceworks community. Tired of seeing the same questions on RAID asked all the time.

Would you mind adding URE to it?

Yeah, but just found it. It's part of the series of articles in 2009 from Robin that really established the state of URE and parity RAID.
