I dont even want to know the price of that 
or the elccy it'l consume although it'd be great in winter.
Some serious kit, How many cpu's! and just a shame it's Fujitsu, still got bad memories of their hdd's just before they dropped from the pc market.
still, it should be big enough to store all ms updates
and some prOn of course.

...and if each drive had a 3-year lifespan, you'd be replacing 2.5 drives per day 'cos they broke
[Actually, if they were all put in as new drives together, you'd be looking at having a Real Bad Day in 3 years time....]

What kind of wage do you think the maintenance man for that lot is on?
He could change one drive, only for another to fail right there and so on - 'so which drive has failed then...?'

Exactly... You could play a game of "find the duff drive" with it, having JBOD you'd know which one was dead as it would tell you... Raided you probably wouldn't. Imagine testing 2,760 drives every time you switch on to find out which one had died
