Date: 22 Aug 1996 18:19:15 GMT Organization: Silicon Beach - Business Internet Services Lines: 32 Message-ID: <4vi8b3$nmt@ocean.silcom.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: beach.silcom.com X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 950824BETA PL0] Umm...can ccd(4) make a SCSI drive go CLANK!? I striped 3 * 2GB Seagate Hawk-2 drives to make a news spool, under FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE. Actually, two of the drives are 8-bit ST32151N, the third is an ST32155W, which is the same geometry, just a 16-bit bus. It ran fine for about six hours, then....blew up. System was trying to reboot when someone looked at it, but was asking for manual fsck. He also reported the disk was making noise... I could hear the armature clanking through the phone.
