I've just had *THREE* Maxtor 250GB hard disk failures on my FreeBSD 4.10 server within a matter of days. One I could attribute to actual failure. Two made me suspicious. Three has me wondering if this is some software problem... (or a conspiracy (just kidding) ;-) )
Are the errors occuring at around the same block numbers? I recall a thread on -current talking about how some drives reported failures around the 133GB mark. Soren recently committed a patch to -current changing the point at which 48bit addressing is used to work around this. It may be worth investigating.
