Eeeeeeeeaaaiiii!!!! Go into the Adaptec utilities (from the disk adapter) and run the verify utility. It should reassign (transparently) this, and copy the data at the same time. DO NOT let this go. If you do, that soft (ECC recoverable) error will likely turn into a hard error and you will lose the data. -- -- Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - Serving Chicagoland and Wisconsin http://www.mcs.net/ | T1's from $600 monthly to FULL DS-3 Service | NEW!
