The timestamps in /var/log/messages suggested that "+ad4: request while spun down, starting." happened at 3:01 am. It would not be very nice if it was due to cron start up; I don't have any system partitions on those drives, it shouldn't touch them... Regards, Alexander. --- On Wed, 4/29/09, Daniel C.
