hi everyone
i have a fileserver with 6 1tb disks
i get the following errors repeated constantly
------------------------------------------------------------

ata17.00 exception Emask 0x0 Sact 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen

after some googling it's been suggested that it's either a hard drive,
the sata controller or the sata cables.
how do i go about diagnosing and fixing the problem,
any suggestions or guidance would be appreciated.
