I am getting lots of ata3 and ata4 errors in the system log.
In spite of these errors, when I unmount the partitions of both drives
and I fsck every partition, no errors are found.
The out of dmesg with the errors is at
http://www.sendspace.com/file/761te2
The drives are esata-2 (300mbits/s) and are housed in brand new external
enclosures
with 80mm fans, connected to the laptop via a 32-bit cardbus with 2
esata-2 ports.
The drives themselves are not new. One of them is 6 years old, the other
4 years old.
Their former enclosures, which were also equipped with 80mm fans, were
discarded due
to their power supply failures.
Hoping a hard drive expert could tell me if the errors are caused by the
cardbus adapter
or the hard drives themselves.
