Correlated Failures Are Common

Multiple drives fail simultaneously more often than expected. Same model, same batch, same age—they fail together and could trigger system wide failures.

Fail-Slow NVMe Drives

NVMe SSDs don't always die—they stall. Latency spikes freeze distributed jobs. In AI training, one bad drive means restarting from the last checkpoint, burning GPU hours and money.

Real Data Loss

A Texas-based HPC center suffered permanent data loss across erasure-coded storage clusters after power events. Months of recovery couldn't restore everything.

Higher failure rates than vendor specs (Microsoft study)

The Hard Reality:

RAID and erasure coding mask failures but can't predict them. They don't warn about firmware bugs, wear-out, or fail-slow behavior.
Correlated failures happen. Same model, same age, same runtime: multiple drives drop together, overwhelming redundancy.
For AI/ML, I/O hiccups = real dollars. One bad drive stalls training runs and forces expensive restarts.
Early firmware versions can have 10X higher failure rates compared to later versions (study of 1.4M SSDs).
Visibility gaps cost time. Without fleet-wide monitoring, IT teams wait weeks for patterns that could be spotted in hours.
