Hi Back now :) I've upgraded to 2.6.16 and applied your verbosity patches. I've persuaded my array to re-assemble and during the resync I got these messages dmesg: ata1: translated op=0x28 cmd=0x25 ATA stat/err 0x51/04 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/00/00 ata1: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } ata1: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError } ...(18mins later) ata1: no sense translation for op=0x28 cmd=0x25 status: 0x51 ata1: translated op=0x28 cmd=0x25 ATA stat/err 0x51/00 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0x3/11/04 ata1: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } smartd is not running This did not cause the raid subsystem to boot the disk (thank goodness!)
