I think that this makes some sense- if I remember correctly, I saw statistics (maybe on BareFeats, or a hard-drive specific site) that a new drive is most likely to fail very early in life. Presumably running it through a few months of normal use in a few days before putting data on it gets it over that hurdle. It probably will not be an enterprise practice- because it is cheaper (in the long run), easier and more reliable to buy drives in pairs.

cheers
