Re: Critical xfs bug in 2.6.17.11?

I am not sure. Its a linux software-raid and as far as I know there is a crc-check in the drives so 
if they cant read the data, they give an error and the raid gets the data from the other drive and 
marks this drive as broken. As far as the log says, the drives are ok.
