Yes, the MTBF but a different point about it
TedKraan 22nd Feb 2010
Robin complains that the MTBF is too reliable e.g. all disks will start failing around the same time.

I guess this could be circumvented by not using one single batch of one single kind of disk of one specific manufacturer.

I've seen a bulk of disk fail around the same time.

But to come back to the point you are making. 2019 is a bit too optimistic, i concur wink
