[tech] DegradedArray event on /dev/md/1:motsugo

[Andrew Adamson]

Nick and I pulled the busted OCZ Vertex 2 disk out tonight - it does get 
recognised when plugged back in but `smartctl -a /dev/sdi' is showing lots 
of old-age/pre-fail errors (output txt attached).

Is anyone free this weekend to go and get another of the 128G Samsungs 
that we've been buying lately? We've only got the one system disk at the 
moment so it's rather urgent.

On a side note, this is the disk that we were worried about dying at the 
start of this year (and caused us to add another disk) - adding the extra 
disk seems to have paid off :-)
