In addition to what others have already said, in theory keep an eye on the Wear_Leveling_Count that its not close to zero. Also, some AHCI errors can be generated due to a controller issue or cable issue. Try smartctl -x on your drive as it sometimes gives more info. If the disk has not logged any smart errors yet you see it in dmesg, it might not be the disk at issue, or at least the disk doesnt think so. ---Mike -- ------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 x203 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet services since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada
