I run a fileserver with FreeBSD 5.3 and proftpd. I have a system disc (PATA) into the motherboard and two SATA discs in the controller card. When I transfer large amounts of data, the system freezes up and when you restart, the SATA discs are corrupt. If I don't umount them fsck (boot-scan) will cause a stall it too. I've changed motherboard/cpu and tried three different network cards. I've also scanned the SATA discs with the manufacturers diagnostics tool. Here's my hardware-list: Abit KT7-raid AMD Athlon 800 D-link 100 Mbit IBM 30 GB IDE 2x Seagate Barracuda 200GB SATA Cdrom, display card, 230w etc. I've spoken to the manufacturer of both the hard drives and the controller card with no luck. I've also searched alot and talked some on freebsd-questions. -- Sebastian Holmqvist Webprogrammer / HL2 modder http://cae.hl2files.com
