Re: [ARMedslack] File system on my Freeagent Dockstar got corrupted

2011-05-06 Thread Davide
This is probably not the cause of your problems but it's something you want to 
keep in mind anyway:
Running non flash oriented journaled file-systems on flash based devices can 
ware them out very quickly especially if you are using MLB flash based device 
with a typical 1 cycle rewrite capability. 
To minimize damage on flash devices at least make sure you mount the 
file-system with noatime option to avoid rewriting an entire erase block just 
because something accessed a file.

Best regards
David

 I'm quite sure now that the USB disk is faulty. After

No that's not the problem because this is a Seagate Freeagent Go hard
disk.

 especially if you are using MLB flash based device with a typical
 1 cycle rewrite capability. To minimize damage on flash devices
 at least make sure you mount the file-system with noatime option to
 avoid rewriting an entire erase block just because something accessed
 a file.

The error message indicates that the USB part of the hard disk is
broken. Unfortunately I cannot open the USB case without damaging a
warranty seal, so I cannot save my data.
I have to find a Windows PC now to run the Seagate test tools. This is
mandatory for a warranty request.
