the crashes started occuring when i added 4 new sata disks
output from seatools (all disks are seagate)
| Code: |
fileserver ~ # ./st -l

where ATA5,6,7, and 8 are the new disks
since it only gives errors on ata5 and ata8.. i suggest there's something wrong with the connectors on the motherboard or the sata cables?
anyone has a good idea where this is coming from..
cheers!

since you get errors on more than one drive at a time, i guess it is not a cable.
could it be a power problem? it seems you have a lot devices in your system. maybe the psu is at the limit? |

That's the first thing that jumped to my mind. What sort of wattage is your PSU?

It might also be them going into some sort of re-cal mode, or forcing a quick SMART check.
It turns out this is one of the main differences between consumer drives and 'enterprise' grade drives (Where they charge 50% more for what is really the same drive...).
I get these every now and then on my RAID array, as the disks are always active unlike the non-RAID'd drives on my system, but it only happens after a month or so of continuous uptime.
So far, the kernel's just reset the drive and then everything's carried on as normal. I've not even had to re-add it to the RAID array! |

it runs on a 450Watt zalman psu
further specs of the system are
amd 3200+ 1GB memory and like 7*9mm fans
could the psu be at limit with this amount of drives?

From the sum of Watts used, I'd say no. But as all the drives share one Power level, I'd say quite possible. If you have another PSU at hand, try with open case powering part of the drives with another PSU.

PietdeBoer,
The "450W Zalman" is not very useful. You will get power problems whenever a single output voltage gets near its limit.
There are also power combination rules that may mean you are getting power problems before you get anywhere near the 450W maximum PSU output.
e.g. your drives will each want about 8w to spin the motors (from the +12V) and 4w (from the +5v) to run the rest of the electronics.
Head movements will want pulses from the +12v.
Your CPU is probably operated from the +12v too. Investigate the load on the +12v and the PSUs capability to supply it

I ordered the power cables a bit... making sure there aint to many hdds on one cable..
the server now ran for 1,5 hours, i've done some heavy copy work to test if it remains stable.. and it does.. my error messages dissapeared from dmesg
thx for your help guys, the solution was an overloaded powercable
