I'd also bet against not hardware failure.
Traditional RAID5 (and others) is subject to data loss in the middle of a write that can break entire arrays if it happens.
Seen it on various LSI controllers, mdraid in Linux, and even a Windows implementation in Storage Spaces. I mean it's rare and mostly won't, but if you get unlucky and lose just enough data from just the right places, well....
Wouldn't imagine that any particular NAS appliance is using some magic sauce that prevents it from happening if you get unlucky as to a crash/power outage.
