Have you ever heard of a motherboard doing that to hardrives over a 4 to
10 month period? It's possible I suppose.
I would look at the power supply, or raid controller, but I doubt there was
anything wrong with the drives

About a year ago a 4 month old WD 2000JB went bad on me so while I was
waiting for a replacement drive I bought one of the then new Maxtor 250
gig drives with 16 megs of cache. I thought that was very cool to have
double the cache! Anyway, I got my WD back and it's been running fine
ever since but now the Maxtor has gone bad.
The likelihood of having two top end drives go bad on you like that,
within the time frames you specified, is extremely unlikely. I would be
asking why, before I would trust that machine with my data again.
