Thanks for the link !
some amazing benches around :) Let's hope we'll have more details on the methodology, but some results are stunning

The issue of rebuild performance in parity-based RAID configs and the effect it would have on guest performance would be a significant consideration. Having said that, it's difficult to find reports of ephemeral drive failures, and Amazon don't quote any failure rates themselves.
