No, I don't think so...

I more think this is a random failure, as is common with the SNAP OS units. After what I learned from using the 8 or so unts I had, I would never using anything except RAID Edition drives in them. They are too prone to drop outs and timing overruns otherwise.

In fact, this is what I meant by my previous comment. The SNAP OS units are too sensitive when it comes to larger drives. Timing is too tight and too prone to random events causing RAID 5 fallout.

IMO, in a 4000 with drives larger than 80 GB, it is WD RAID Edition drives or nothing... And what you are seeing here is exactly the why.
