Hey guys,
So I have a Dell Perc 6/i and will soon implement a RAID6 most likely comprising of 8x WD Red 2TB Drives (Easily available to me) as 2x for Parity, 1x Hot-Spare and 5x Storage.
My question is:
What happens if a drive fails, it begins to rebuild, and during the rebuild a 2nd drive fails?
Will all the data be lost, or will it continue to rebuild again once the faulty drive has been replaced?
I have honestly Googled around but cannot find a concrete answer...
Thanks!
