Colleague had a ticket a few weeks ago from a user who had set up their own private NFS server very much contrary to our recommendations. Disks failing left and right. Luckily it was on ZFS, so it just went offline rather than eating itself. Unluckily it was on donated hardware with one of those awful "hardware RAID" controllers with 1:1 mapping. Colleague put the drives into a spare chassis we had been saving and it imported without error. Friends don't let friends use "hardware RAID".
