Could be cables - I will get a replacement to verify that. I'm less sure it is drives. Yes, all 4 drives were in the same machine. Machine is a regular 2U rackmount chassis (one CPU), with proper airflow. Each drive has its individual aluminum fan as well. Chassis sits in a 47U cabinet, datacenter environment, with lots of free space around. So I'm quite sure it is not cooling/dust issues.. Well, unfortunately, I don't have access to hardware myself, so I can't do any hardware related tasks. As said, I will get those two drives shipped to me, and will then see myself if it is really hdd issue, or something else.. > > DES regards, M. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
