It looks like it works now without any problems: *) Serveral RAID checks (once a day) *) smartctl checks were fine *) Only one reallocated sector *) Writing the disk full with random data So the possibilities for the fault are: *) SATA power connector (most likely I would guess) *) 4th disk is now ok *) Other 220V power cable connector through the Wattmeter Ciao, Gerhard -- http://www.wiesinger.com/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
