+====== Raid Reliability ======

+It took a lot of back and forth but the basic idea is this, the calculator is “directionally” correct
+but is not the most accurate way to model all of that stuff. We did evaluate a much faster model but on
+an AWS m1.small instance it was taking over 15 minutes to complete with only one user. Simply put, this
+RAID reliability calculator will give you a fairly good idea regarding which RAID level is the most
+reliable given a number of drives.

+====== Fixing Disk Signature Collisions ======
+From: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/markrussinovich/2011/11/06/fixing-disk-signature-collisions/
+<code>
+Method 1: If you right-click on the disk, the utility offers an “Online” command that will cause
+Windows to analyze the disk’s partition table and mount its volumes:
+Method 2: With the disk signature in hand, open an administrative command prompt window and run
+Diskpart, the command-line disk management utility. Enter “select disk 2”, replacing “2” with
+the disk ID that the Disk Management utility shows for the disk. Now you’re ready for the final
+step, setting the disk signature to its original value with the command “uniqueid disk id=e9eb3aa5”,
+substituting the ID with the one you saw in the BCD:

+Legacy SATA - Used for SATA SSDs, and interfaced through the AHCI driver and legacy SATA 3.0
+PCI Express using AHCI - Used for PCI Express SSDs and interfaced through the AHCI driver
+AHCI has some inherent inefficiencies when applied to SSD devices, which behave much more
+like DRAM than like spinning media.
+PCI Express using NVMe
+At a high level, primary advantages of NVMe over AHCI relate to NVMe's ability to exploit
+parallelism in host hardware and software
