NASTY! Thanks, I'll give that a whirl. Is there a way I can kill all power manglement outside of the BIOS just to make sure I prevent this? Once this is working, I won't even need console blanking. Should I make sure APM is killed in the kernel config too? I think I may have turned it on when I added RAID5 support, thinking I'd use idle calls now that I have 6 7200RPM drives to heat up my case ;-) The system opporated in a mirror just fine for around year, if that makes a difference... using two of these drives (hde and hdk if my memory serves) *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 6/25/2003 at 3:28 PM Mike Dresser wrote: >On Wed, 25 Jun 2003, Corey McGuire wrote: > >> I have 6 drives and 3 controllers.
