I could argue that ZFS was the biggest invention since RAID was invented as it solves so many things in one solution. It's a pity that he missed that too. Plus Tape still backs up all cloud storage and is a big factor in the protection of storage loss. RAID won't do jack if threatened by attack by ransomware
These are some incredible guests, keep it up Lex.
Yah seriously. For programmers and scientists his guests are the best. Better than TED talks.
For a minute I was surprised Bryan Cranston was a computer scientist or something like that.
raid is such a simple idea math-wise, yet the implementation were so painful to use. Thank Apollo ZFS came along!
How much money did Patterson make from inventing RAID?
Patterson is a great guy but this was hardly the first work on disk array. At Bull we were working on that in 1984 for a supercomputer project.

Good stuff
The important of reliability is tremendously higher for storage.
Which is why for example RAIDZ is where it's at.
does he get royalty for this ?
