drive array is busted he will need a new array not just the one or two disks and then it has to be copied over
days , most likely 3-5

I've done raid setups and clones b4, hours at most. Probably 40 mins on good modern hardware. And not ancient 7200 rpm drives

I really think its amazing that two separate entire drive arrays on two separate boxes broke at the same time. That's some really ineradicable odds.

I wouldn't be surprised if red went down to fix blue.
If boxes were hosted on rented hardware, would have been fixed in minutes. A complete failure would have been avoided. It takes 3 drives to go bad in a raid 5, before things start getting ugly. The people hosting the hardware would have thrown drives in it.
These are Basement Dweller Servers though. Lets not deceive ourselves.
