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...?'

It would be like "whack-a-mole" on steroids

"Which lights on??!!?......" *panic* "...arrggghh!" etc

...and if they're all Maxtors...

*Press on Button*

[Sounds like bag of spanners dropped down stairs]

*silence*

I jus needed to say this was the first post I looked at after i did mine - still having spasms of laugher now - very good

Well you wouldn't need central heating in that room...or even building
but thinking about it, surely it would be easier and cheaper to get a couple of smaller ones?

Why, you would still need 2760 drives to get to the storage amount

I just worked out that if you did use Raptors to get that much storage, and they were all the 150Gb ones you'd need 9200... At a cost of £204.93 each for the standard version that's a whopping £1,880,388

Move a few HDDs and you'll have yourself a wardrobe with built in dryer and trouser press

You could even mount the platters on angle grinders for 20,000rpm uber drives

It would sound like a steam train carrying flammable gas crashing into a TNT factory
