I'd got all the data off that 3T with no read failures, and then remade the filesystem. I had to use -f because it saw the old one, but I don't know if that's pertinent here or not. Anyroad, I made the new filesystem, with whatever mkfs.xfs's defaults are for a 3T filesystem in 3.1.11, and then started rsyncing the 2TB drive onto it, so I could fix that one. Got 88GB in, and did the same thing: =========================================== Aug 22 13:34:13 duckling kernel: [67215.008867] XFS (sda1): Corruption detected.

I'll try swapping it; this mobo has always gotten whacky if we went over 512M, which is why we haven't. I don't know if I can manually reclock the ram, though I might can turn the waitstates up. > If that doesn't fix it, this may be a viable inexpensive > solution: > > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813186215 > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103888 > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145252 > > $109 to replace your central electronics complex.

Well, I can live without HDMI, but my present MS-7021 mobo has 5 PCI slots, and I'm using all of them: 2 PVR-150s, a PVR-500, and a SiI 4-port raid (which will talk to 2 and 3TB drives; the motherboard SATA won't even see them). I forget what's in 5, but I think it was the only VGA card I had with S-Video out. So, while that's a damn nice price point, it will require me to buy a bunch of Ethernet tuners as well. <sigh> I'll try the RAM. It's really odd, though, that the badblocks workload and both memtests couldn't find a problem, if it is the memory plane... Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
