Just because you have an unrecoverable read error does not mean your RAID array is corrupted. This will most probably result in a corrupted file. In most cases the offending sector will be added to the bad sector list maintained by the drive and taken out of use. Also just because drives double in size every year doesn't mean your data does. The only relevent size is that of the data. An error on an unused portion of the drive isn't a problem.
