The symptoms: On a fairly regular basis, with no apparent correlation to power outages, our shoe-box disks will start generating complaints of the form: sd0b: write retry, blk 11736 (abs blk 27648) sense key(0x3): medium error, error code(0x10): I.D. CRC error The actual error code/message changes, as does the partition. I often see "retry" and "read". Re-formatting seems to clear it up (for a time), but I'd prefer to avoid the problem altogether. Ideas? Dieter Muller -- dieter%nmt@relay.cs.net dieter@jupiter.nmt.edu
