A frustrating tale of woe many of us will sympathise with from having been in similar situations. Hopefully you didn't have the added complication of various people peering over your shoulder while you were trying to do this asking "how much longer?"

Several lessons to be learned from that, obviously, and a duff raid card is one that is often overlooked (and compatibility with the arrays it shepherds). But the big one is on-machine backups. Not just for corruption, but theft and fire too of course.Let's hope the lessons you gave stick into the future and don't get bypassed. :)
