Its been a while since my original post but have been waiting to see if any sort of pattern has developed. What we are seeing is that the "shares" filesystem is getting corrupted regularly every 3 weeks, after running xfs_repair all is well until the next time. Today the root filesystem needed xfs_repair running on it before the unit would successfully boot, this is after about 3 months of usage.
Is there perhaps some way of doing a filesystem check on boot after so many mounts like other flavours of Linux do? Did we make a mistake in buying a SnapServer 110? I find it hard to believe that no-one else is experiencing such problems given that we have seen it with 2 different units.
BTW: The disk in question is a Western Digital (WD RE 250GB) not a Maxtor, though this doesn't really feel like a hardware problem anyway especially given that two units have exhibited the same behaviour.
Regarding following up with Adaptec support, well thats just too painful ... Previous calls have amounted to nothing more that hours of rebooting and reloading the OS, which obviously we can't keep doing! Adaptec support in Australia appears to be limited to one person and we simply bought the unit from an online store so there's no help there in terms of software support
