Friday, my system disk died, so I took that as a sign to reinstall everything from scratch and reorganize my partitions (not to mention getting a much bigger disk). I figure the disk picked Friday to die because it knew fedora updates and livna build system were down, so it would be the most inconvenient time it could possibly pick to die :-). Today, my 2nd disk with lots of data died as well (the new disk is currently getting filled back up via rsync from my backup drive). Is this just a sign of superb quality control in the samsung disk factories turning out identical disks that last almost the exact same amount of time in the same CPU case with the same number of power cycles? Or is there some spooky virus around that can actually destroy the electronics in disk drives (both disks appear to be so dead they can't even be recognized as disk drives by the BIOS). These were 2 samsung HD160JJ sata disks ordered at the same time and probably pulled from the same box, both made 2006.1 according to the date stamp. I hope this isn't the same problem livna and fedora infrastructure had :-). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
