Hello fellas, My system is a 8.0-RELEASE with 6 hdd's. 2 days ago I had some power failures and 2 disks were affected. These 2 hdd;s are connected to "atapci0: <SiI 3512 SATA150 controller> port 0xd000-0xd007,0xd100-0xd103,0xd200-0xd207,0xd300-0xd303,0xd400-0xd40f mem 0xfa4a0000-0xfa4a01ff irq 12 at device 4.0 on pci2" s-ata controller. Before the power surge, the disks were operating normally. I use them for storage, therefore no system data is kept on them. The issue here is that after the write failure, the box reboots. Up to this point I cannot figure out why it reboots, since the disks contain no "relevant" data (from a OS point of view). Do you think it's normal for an OS to reboot if 2 disks have write errors ? even more so, if the disks have no OS files on them ?
