<DIV>I had given that some thought, it would appear to me that if it was the
disk(s) that each time a write or read would happen there would be either some
error or the users would be have some difficulty in reading or writing to the
drives. Same if it was a nic, there would be either a slow down on the
network or jabbering on the network.</DIV>
<DIV>This error happens as the controller card is loaded, from there it keeps on
working. There is a chance that it may be the 2nd drive in the RAID.
I may break the RAID to see if it makes any differences.</DIV>
