seek seek (1/8 seek pause) seek seek
pause
seek seek (1/8 seek pause) seek seek

then give you a raead error?
I suppose the reason I ask is obvious. I may have just lost a drive or at least I hope it's only one. Had two in a RAID0.
Glad I finished my backup.
I'm afraid that sounds like a HD about to die. I know what I'm talking about, just lost two 30Gb IBM disks within the last two months BUT thank god for 3 year warrranty!! I'm getting two brand new 30Gb disks today for free
