Hi All,
I'm having a few issues and I could use another brain on this. I have a
machine which is throwing up ata errors like this:

It was doing this a few weeks ago, so I swapped the disk out and it was
happy for a bit. Now it's coming back and doing it on the new disk
(which is in the same place as the old one (sec-master)).
I figure this means the controller has gone bork?
relevant bits of dmesg:

I have about the same situation -- 4.10-STABLE reporting a read error every few days, each time on a different disk, but every time it turned out that the disk really was good according to Maxtor's tests :(> I figure this means the controller has gone bork?That's also a possibility, but I've seen it happen on 3 different controllers already, which imho is too much coincidence for it to really be a controller failure. I'm still in the dark as to what it really is though. It could very well still be a hardware error in my case (heat and memory not yet ruled out). --Stijn -- "Linux has many different distributions, meaning that you can probably find one that is exactly what you want (I even found one that looked like a Unix system)." -- Mike Meyer, from a posting at questions@freebsd.org -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

> I figure this means the controller has gone bork?Maybe yes, but I've have nearly the same situation with Maxtor IDE HDDs. We've bought about 10 Maxtor 6E040L0 HDDs in Dec2003, and in May2004 4(!) of them are gone with the same result as in your case. Maybe it was a bad consignment, becouse the same HDDs bought two month earlier or later works fine... Check temperature in the case - I assume they don't like even small overheat.

Meybe it's just a shoot in the darkness, but when I saw this message couple of days ago, I simply replased a power cable, going from a power unit. I think that all problem in a socket of that cable. Anyway troubles have disappeared after that. Best regards, Nikolay Pavlov.
