Just wondering, which server hardware do you guys use for SQL Servers - we use Dell, curious to know what you are using - John Adams

We use EMC Clariion storage systems and Dell Servers for most applications.

Dell. The controllers are using trash the database when a Write error occurs on a drive in RAID5.

I dunno if this has anything to do with Dell, the controllers specifically, or RAID5 in general (although I've read that this is a general problem with RAID5, dunno if that is for real or not though).

Anyway, turn on "torn page detection" and the like for safety!
