Most likely your HDD is on it's way out, even though it may be checking out fine later. I suggest you replace the HDD. I have seen SCSI disks appear and disappear on HBA scans - when they appeared they worked fine but ... they eventually RIP'd. Also, I presume you have looked at cooling issues - overheating can cause weird symptoms. -- Arun Khan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux is a wigwam: No Windows, No Gates, Apache inside. -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
