I have got those when I had the wrong driver for my drive controller. You may want to check that if this is a new install or you have changed your kernel recently. I tested mine by doing back to back hdparm -Tt tests. It fails when you do the test 4 or 5 times in a row. Hope that helps. Dale :-) :-) :-) -- www.myspace.com/dalek1967
