It's a *very* old KT6V based board, and when we tried to expand it several years back, it went bat-guano with any more than half a gig. > Not sure if you are hitting a bug as much as running into something > else like a hardware limit (RAM) or a memory stick issue. Well, the upstream cause was a 7 year old Antec power supply that finally died, about a month ago, slowly. > Do you have EDAC (or mcelog) on? Any errors from this? I don't have mcelog on, and no, the memory isn't registered, but a 4-pass run of Memtest+ came up clean, so I'm speculating that the *continuing* problem isn't hardware; I'm pretty sure it was just the failing 12V rail on the dying PS. I just have to clean up after it enough to get *one* of these 2 drives cleaned off, then I can make a new FS, and play musical files. Or, I may just go grab a 3TB external after all. :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
