I would of rather seen a drive corrupted with a large magnet. Why? I want to see corrupted data entering his raid and seeing how his file system response in a realistic form. The bits start flipping or the CRC goes bad or you get some sort of failure of the magnetic coating somewhere or a head crash and things go all to shit.
A drive getting hit with a hammer is not a realistic outcome.
@linagee Find me a RAID6 that can rebuild that fast with large drives and I'll be impressed. The advantage is that it only needs to rebuild the data that is in the file system instead of every bit on the drive.
