>At the risk of adding yet another "Quick Question" - if it's the same >channel that degrades - have you tried switching the channels over [Yes, I >know this requires someone on site to open/fiddle with the machine - and >switching the IDE cables over]? Yeah I tried that too... Basically no matter what the configuration of drives and ports I use, once it's degraded, I cannot rebuild the broken drive back in. >And, what's the state of the degraded drives afterwards - i.e. are they >really broken? [After having been tested/thrashed in a separate box to >verify it's condition?] No, the drive isn't broken - we've used the drives afterwards with no problems and have run sector scans on them.. Thanks Karl, Adrian.
