Everything isn't broken, but a few things might be looping
- tlb 9y agoIs it normal to recycle flaky disks back into inventory? I've never run a big operation, but in my own hardware ops I write NFG on anything that might be bad and put it aside for emergency use only. Disks, power supplies, cables aren't so valuable that it's worth installing a suspect one.

I have to imagine this happens all over the place. I remember reading on Joel On Software, in one writing on hiring that's the same thing for devs, the good devs stay in the company and the bad ones keep cycling in the labor market.
