Does anyone know whether they got unlucky with 3 simultaneous failures, didn’t notice earlier failures, or had some other issue that killed all the drives?

Well, from what I see in the pictures they are using consumer grade ssds to power up an enterprise like grade database. This is not bad luck, this is just bad by design.

And they are doing the same ’mistake’ again.

I would guess the failures were errors on rebuild.

This article summarizes this kind of scenario fairly well: https://www.zdnet.com/article/why-raid-6-stops-working-in-20...
