Update. It took about three and a half hours to do the disk check and is now starting on the resync. This one took a lot longer than the other one because it has a lot more data on it.

I'm copying off the one folder that I don't have a current backup of, about a gig and a half. Then I'll just let it run and see if it happens again.

Anyone seen this happen before? I got a panic in both cases, but for different reasons. It's kind of odd. I had one 705n that ran non-stop for five years (except when I had to shut it down when we had extended power outages) before it croaked, but it never had a panic. Of these last two, the first ran for a little over a year before the panic, and the second ran for a bit over two years.

I'm wondering if age is starting to have it's effect on the components.

Edit: At the time I first installed these units, both had brand new hard drives, and the correct 256MB memory (Kingston). The first one is running SNAP OS 3.4.805 and the other is running the Dell version 3.4.790. Same hardware (2.2.1) and BIOS (2.4.437). Server IDs are both in the 51xxxx.
