Hmm. interesting. It was not set up as a mirror. at least when we rebuilt
the machine awhile back. I won't worry about that error then.

The failed redundancy message almost certainly refers to a failed software
mirror.

FWIW, this is NOT a RAID drive. It was originally, but then the system
crashed and we barely got the data back from one of the two drives and had
to reload the data from the emergency "mirror."

No, nothing really in the log files.. The only thing in the system log that
gave me pause is this: dmboot: Volume Volume1 (C:) started in failed
redundancy mode. Not sure what that means.. I've rebuilt this server from
scratch once, but I'd rather not do it again.

Typically there are all kinds of nasty things in the system log if a drive
is failing.  Anything there?

I have used Hard Disk Sentinel to gain some visibility into drive issues in
the past.  YMMV.

I get an error trying to run Seatools to test my SCSI drive, even after

error checking software to see if the drive is having issues? O/S is Win2k
