For the past 3 months I have had alot of problems with my raid6, which is a problem as its my main storage medium that is used for backup and long time storage of my files. It consists of,
areca 1220 controller
8x wd 320gb aaks drives
in Raid6 configuration for a total of 1.9TB usable space.
I have done everything from rebuilt the array to reinstalling the operating system... I spent 4 hours last night trouble shooting it and it turns out to be bad sata cables. Put in 8 new DFI sata cables that have a tigher fit and the problem seems resolved, no more drivers dropping off the array!
I can rest peacefully now knowing my data is secure..
