Hi Makara, make a backup.
Download a Disk Diagnosis Program from the Homepage of the Manufacturer of the Harddisk or download the utlimate boot disk (google it). did i mention to make a backup? :-) Run the Disk Diagnosis Long/Extended Test. This can take some hours depending on the size of the disk. Depending on the result: repair eventually bad blogs or replace the drive. Would be my suggestion. If you replace the drive, look for one that is made for 24/7 usage. Optiplex Systems have mostly desktop disks that are made for 60% of 24/7 usage. A hint can be the extended warranty time. the best point to see is the MTBF and the manufacturers categorizing for server/enterprise disks. a good choice are also notebook disks with slower turning rates and high MTBF. if that isn't the source of the error p.e. the disk has no failures, run a hardware test programm. on the ultimate boot disk are also such programs. hth. regards M. = = = http://michael-schuh.net/ = = = Projektmanagement - IT-Consulting - Professional Services IT Rev.
