Hmmm Hard drives do not like heat! Check the PSU voltages with a
meter, for accuracy and ripple. Failing SMPS's can do all sorts of odd
things.
Capacitor problems. Been there done that. They can be changed for very
low cost, other than your time.

You might guess by know, I know far more about hardware than I do about
software, but for the latter to run well, the former must be good.

Many thanks Dave for all the suggestions!!!
To be honest I think the drives are fine but the system is just soooo
old including the IDE drives.
I mean if I get a SATA/IDE USB adapter I should be able to backup the
drives to the new DAS system I will have in place shortly since I am
much more in favor of running Nexenta Core 3 OS with ZFS spanning the
16x drives meaning a total of 36TB with 2 internal drives used for
logging and caching.
Then this system will be obsolete. However, I will keep your suggestion
of using *spinwrite* in mind next time I encounter issues!
BTW I respect your H/W knowledge that's quite in deep :-) thank you for
your insight.
<just an observation demon.co.uk :-) used to be my old ISP til I went
with Pipex which is now bust, then I moved out of the UK and now
everything is roasting hot>
Best regards,
