No change from before, but I don't think I had ever yet put enough data on my disk at any point to make it past 137G anyway. If you're not booting from the disk, in order to really get a good handle on the subtle data corruption you may want to setup ZFS so you have some failing checksums to look at. Or just boot from your SATA disk and watch the explosion :) -- TerraNovaNet Internet Services - Key Largo, FL Voice: (305)453-4011 x101 Fax: (305)451-5991 http://www.terranova.net/ ---------------------------------------------- Life's not fair, but the root password helps.
