This will be my last post on this topic. George you are rude and I know I will not be offering any more suggestions for you. I foresee few others willing to help you now as well. Jeremy has willingly given you a great amount of detail to work with and it's up to him to look past your rude behavior and continue to help you. -- > Chris Brennan > -- > A: Yes. > >Q: Are you sure? > >>A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. > >>>Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? > http://xkcd.com/84/ | http://xkcd.com/149/ | http://xkcd.com/549/ > GPG: D5B20C0C (6741 8EE4 6C7D 11FB 8DA8 9E4A EECD 9A84 D5B2 0C0C) ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

And yet, your still top posting. I was only pointing out the logical conclusion here. You've tried the obvious, time to move up the chain. I'm sorry you don't happen to like that but there is no need to be rude about it. -- > Chris Brennan > -- > A: Yes. > >Q: Are you sure? > >>A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. > >>>Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? > http://xkcd.com/84/ | http://xkcd.com/149/ | http://xkcd.com/549/ > GPG: D5B20C0C (6741 8EE4 6C7D 11FB 8DA8 9E4A EECD 9A84 D5B2 0C0C) ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I just want to eliminate any other options first. > Don't top post, it's against list policy. See my siganture for a reasonable reason why. Replace the port or just moved the drive to an unused port? Or did you physically remove the card and solder a new SATA Female port to your card (which I would imagine would violate/void your warranty on the card. Essentially this is what you've done so far: 1. Changed drives 2. Changed SATA Cable 3. Moved to an unused port To be perfectly honest, it sounds like a faulty card, which was my original assessment. First I would see replacement on the same card under the warranty, if it still produces a problem, I would change cards. There is a slim chance it could also be a driver issue. -- > Chris Brennan > -- > A: Yes. > >Q: Are you sure? > >>A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. > >>>Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? > http://xkcd.com/84/ | http://xkcd.com/149/ | http://xkcd.com/549/ > GPG: D5B20C0C (6741 8EE4 6C7D 11FB 8DA8 9E4A EECD 9A84 D5B2 0C0C) --- ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Just a stab in the dark here ... but since you mention the same disk almost being removed from the raidz1, maybe the port on the card is bad? if you've replaced the disk and the cable(s), then what is left?
