DisasterTest1 1080P

Demonstrations in our business have long been a minor annoyance to us in hardware. Often times, these demonstrations are contrived, and do not show the full ability of a system, or are contrived enough to mask shortcomings in ft solutions. For instance, we've seen demos where a hard disk is pulled (RAID 1 covers this) or an Ethernet cable is disconnected (Teaming). In cases like that, one can make almost any system appear to survive simple tests. This is done, as it is difficult to demonstrate random component failure, such as a multi-bit ECC.

Our solution was to come up with a short video demo of our own. Hope you enjoy it.

Good stuff! I'm always spilling cups of screws in my computer, and that gets me so flustered that I spill my coffee in there too. This will be a real lifesaver!

Great stuff! "Will it fail?" the a new take on the "Will it blend?" series.
