The answer is to use a "cold" standby in a spare drive bay. A drive that isnt running, spins up and takes the place of the first dead one. The second failure, if it is more than 30 minutes after the first one, wont affect the raid stripe. RAID is supposed to be N-1 ( for every 5 drives you use, you only get the benefit of 4 drives storage in total.) but it is really N-2 or N-3 I agree with the earlier post .... the Raptor is a drive to keep an eye on.
