We need disks continuously scanned in spare cycles, and offline the drives (or remap the sectors) as soon as an error is found. Also, when rebuilding an array, don't stop due to a read failure. mark the sector as bad and complete the rebuild. Waiting for a drive to fail has been too late to recover the array, in my experience. Chris > > Thanks in advance for any thoughts.. > > > -- > With our best regards, > > //Maurice W.
