Good thought, David. As you say, the Activity Log should reflect
such a problem. If a Volume Control Region problem, be aware that
it is always due to defective drive microcode, and so you'd need to
have your CE boost the microcode to a known-good level to rid
yourself of the problem. (Once a year or so, a defective microcode
release seems to make it out into the field, causing problems like
these.)
