Hi Alan Thanks for your reponse. I have a number of these sorts of errors in syslog/kernel.log: Feb 17 12:51:57 clwbackup kernel: [246270.502717] st0: Sense Key : Medium Error [current] Feb 17 12:51:57 clwbackup kernel: [246270.502725] st0: Add. Sense: Sequential positioning error Feb 17 13:35:09 clwbackup kernel: [248858.447127] st0: Sense Key : Aborted Command [current] Feb 17 13:35:09 clwbackup kernel: [248858.447131] st0: Add. Sense: Tagged overlapped commands (task tag 0) Feb 17 17:13:50 clwbackup kernel: [ 2.285988] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Mode Sense: cb 00 00 08 Feb 17 18:00:47 clwbackup kernel: [ 2981.278175] st0: Sense Key : Aborted Command [current] Feb 17 18:00:47 clwbackup kernel: [ 2981.278180] st0: Add. Sense: Tagged overlapped commands (task tag 0) I'm not clear if these are SAS errors (I'm using the mvsas kernel module) or if there is a problem with the drive, which is what Dell hav esuggested. This drive has been working fine for 6 months up until now, and I haven't changed anything on the machine.
