The most
amazing thing is being in a real computer room (i.e. dozens
of 14" drives) when the power suddenly goes *off*. The silence is
astonishing.
What would be even MORE amazing is when the power comes back ON a second
later, with all the power switches still on, and everything tries to spin
up at once...
Or is there some safeguard against that?
