I just noticed, however, the following two interesting lines that
/var/log/messages seems to have acquired:
May 12 15:44:00 qemg kernel: ad8: FAILURE - SMART
status=51<READY,DSC,ERROR> error=4<ABORTED>
May 12 16:05:27 qemg kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait
buffer: bufobj: 0, blkno: 294, size: 8192
The first dates from the point at which I turned on SMART data logging.
The second one, however looks more interesting to me -- am I correct
in thinking that there is no good reason why the "swap_pager" error
would appear, aside from some sort of hardware related failure?
When I see errors from the OS, but not on the actual disk itself,
apart from driver errors (relatively rare on FreeBSD) it can be a
cable issue or bad SATA port.
But as chuck said, post all of the output from smartctl -a
