Kudos to Andrey for asking a simple yet incredibly benefitial question. You have a much greater problem here, and it doesn't look specific to your disks. It looks as if an interrupt is stalled or locked. I'm willing to bet your rl1 Realtek NIC and your ATA controller (associated with disks ad4 and ad6) use the same IRQ. vmstat -i output should help clear that up, or dmesg output. I'll tell you that there have been some watchdog timeout fixes committed to rl(4) in recent months, depending upon what specific model and revision of Realtek NIC you have. No offence intended, but Realtek is definitely the worst of the bunch. I'm willing to bet it's an on-board NIC too. :-) I'm CC'ing PYUN Yong-Hyeon here, as he presently maintains/works on the rl(4) driver, and might be able to help determine if the Realtek NIC is what's causing all of this, or if the ATA chipset (is this the VIA? We don't know yet) is causing it first. Finally, what motherboard brand and model is this, and what BIOS revision or version? -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
