This is a question for the pros here -
Since RAID 1 puts a duplicate copy of same data on two drives, and lets say one drive experienced a bit rot that affected a file. When the file is accessed how does the controller determine which drive it reads from?
But my speculation is unless the controller actively scans the entire data and compares it against the checksum, then maybe opening the corrupted file will result in an error unless the controller re-reads from the second drive?
