Good point.

It's not my server, it's my client's server, and I don't know the history of it.

They have mentioned another computer which runs XP I believe. It's dedicated to a single task and could double as the database server, although I don't think it has any RAID. I will suggest that we try installing Postgres on that computer and see if the problem goes away. If so, they might choose to make that their solution (perhaps adding another hard drive and a RAID controller). The application, daily backups, and WAL files could all live on the original server.

If they go that route, we'd never know for certain what the original problem was.

I'll post back after anything is done.
