What Caused the Microsoft/Danger Disaster?

Make no mistake: this is a large-scale catastrophic loss of valuable data. The story reported here, that it was a botched SAN upgrade with no backup in place, jibes with what I’ve heard on background.

It betrays Microsoft’s utter disregard for the value of Sidekick customer data and the veracity of Murphy’s Law.
