HDD & SSD Linux: Hard resetting link Interesting. I'm a sucker for case lighting so I've had these guys in here since 2008 also when I built the system. I'll leave them off for a while and see what happens. Thanks for your help, I never would have thought of possible interference from the cold cathodes. |

HDD & SSD Linux: Hard resetting link I'd really like to avoid decrypting the drives, especially if I have to RMA them in the future. Although, I could take a spare drive, put an unencrypted filesystem on it, and have a cron job write random data to it for a while each day and see what happens. |

HDD & SSD Linux: Hard resetting link Thanks for the reply. Yes, my question is how can I figure out why all these drives keep failing on me. My mobo has been with me since 2008 when I built this system. I wonder if it's feeling the effects of old age. Four years isn't that old though. I do have three cold cathode lights in my case. I've never heard of those causing problems with cables though. More info on this? I have a few spare SATA cables lying around. I'll swap them out and change the SATA ports on my mobo. I can turn off the cold cathodes as well. |

Kubuntu 11.10: Random IO errors on HDD in RAID1 array. RMA time? Wow, I wished I had known about the badblocks utility before. Unfortunately, it seems that my drive has completely bit the dust (constant IO errors now) so I can't test it out. Thank you very much though! |

Encrypted HDD vs. Power Outage. SOL? Turns out I'm actually incredibly stupid and forgot that I encrypted the RAID array, not the individual partition. A quick mdadm --assemble --scan, and then cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/md0 [name] and I was able to get all my files. The first drive that BIOS reports as 0.0GB is still fried, but at least I can still get my data and invest in a better surge protector. Thanks for your suggestions guys. |
