FLD?

What’s a FLD?  That’s a F#%$ Load of Disk.  :-)

We just put hooked up a Dell PowerVault MD1000 RAID array to a file server in our Spokane office.  The chassis has 15 750GB drives in it, arranged in a RAID 50 array (2 sets of 7 disks in RAID 5 with a RAID 0 stripe across both RAID 5′s, 1 global hot spare).  Over 8TB of online storage … that’s 8,000GB!
