Many people reacted with disbelief to my recent series on data  
corruption (see How data gets lost, 50 ways to lose your data and How  
Microsoft puts your data at risk), claiming it had never happened to  
them. Really? Never had to reinstall an application, an OS, or had a  
file that wouldn’t open?

Are you sure?

The research on silent data corruption has been theoretical or  
anecdotal, not statistical. But now, finally, some statistics are in.  
And the numbers are worse than I’d imagined.
