We went through 4 new hard drives within 3 months total. With each hard drive replacement, we also
replaced some other component, first was the memory, then the CPU, and finally before putting the 5th drive in place,
I had changed out the motherboard, and the system has been up for 6 months now.

Good suggestion. I've been through four, however. All with the same
problem. The original 2460 was kinda particular about it's power
supplies, the 2466 seems less so as it's got the P4 extra power supply
connector to help with the dual proc power needs. No special voltage
requirements are specificed for the 2466.
I'm wondering if it's not the CPU. If it were the RAM, I'd figure that
ECC would trip up before it allowed for that kind of corruption. *sigh*.

Unix IS user friendly... It's just selective about who its friends are.
System Administration - It's a dirty job, but somebody said I had to do it.
