I've heard very similar advice for non-SSD mirrors too. Use different manufacturers or, at the very least, use different batches of disks from the same manufacturer.
- blattimwind 8y agoMost importantly, never assemble an array from drives that took the same shipping path i.e. came out of the same parcel.
- lsc 8y agoMost people use different batches but the same manufacturer, mostly because they remember advice from back when you could get a hardware raid card that would synchronize your scsi drives. Also, though, because most serious RAIDs contain more drives than you can find manufacturers of hard drives.
