You ignore the facts and do "mi mi mi" in face of bugs reports. 2 
different arrays lost 1 drive, both at the same time at reboot after the 
OS upgrade, and both drives are working fine. Facts.

And even *if* they had a temporary error, my case shows why it's a *bug* 
to kick them out of the array. And it's a *bug* to not let me put them 
back in with data. Tons of other people have suffered dataloss because 
of various temporary, easily recoverable problems and these 2 bugs.

People like you are the reason why people like me suffer dataloss.
