After years of stability, FW800 drives now randomly disappear

I have a Mac Mini to / 2009 with 6 2 TB G-drives attached via FireWire 800 and configured as RAID 6 to mirrored volume. My system has been configured in this way for about 4 years.

About three months ago I started having problems with the volume randomly endangered (incorrect disc is ejected). It happens when the drives are inactive and when there is an intense activity of IO - makes no difference. When this problem started, the volume has been configured with the AppleRAID and disks are connected in Garland, one to the other, on the back of my Mac Mini. I have since turned off all power management features, replaced cables, left for SoftRAID(4) AppleRAID, reset the Mac Mini, reinstalled OS X, makes a partial disk swap off Spotlight, put a fan on the push to reduce their usage time and installed a powered hub of Nitro AV to remove the Garland. No substantive changes - only they don't give up much, but it happens still regularly (every 24-48 hours).

Interestingly, not all 6 discs disappear. Sometimes when it's just one, or maybe two or three or even five of the six. I can't decipher a pattern. I find it odd that only some readers drop out and those who is different every time. Sometimes reboot will bring them back, but not always. The only sure method to get the reader to put it back online is tension on the drive.

The one constant I've observed more recently is there is always this error FireWire a few seconds to a minute before readers abandon "Lucent ID 5901 integrated: handleUnrecoverableErrorInt.» I did some research and found not much - more info on audio problems than drives.

Before moved me to SoftRAID(4), who owns a proprietary driver limit myself to a single PC, I moved the disk on another machine of circa-2009 (a MBP). The problem was always present, but not as bad. Maybe an obscure issue with interaction between El Capitan and my older hardware?

This problem has led to problems of significant data corruption and too many hours of troubleshooting of headaches and so I'm done with FW and move to a Synology NAS. I thought I would check here if to see if there is new way of thinking about this old topic or something obvious that I may have missed my troubleshooting.

Thank you.

  • The race in one problem after the other under Windows 7 - now favorite disappeared, save the empty folder

    OK, so auto-hide taskbar would stop working, very frustrating because I keep up - so I followed the suggestion in line and 'refreshed' FF. Who sets auto hide taskbar, bookmarks, always there, but my game of the opening of the tabs (I keep one session to another) have disappeared.

    So I did a restore of the system to the most recent point yesterday morning and this indeed restore tabs from opening, but now bookmarks disappeared. Found in the location of the profile and there is nothing in the bookmarks backup folder.

    What is going on? Is it my computer or FF? What should I do now?

    I have an old desk that has most of the bookmarks on it so that I can transfer if need be, but I want to know what the devil is going on because it's very unstable obviously and I need to count on my browser.

    Thank you!

  • I have a laptop Lenovo bought in the spring of 2008 running on Vista Home Premium. After years of basically no problem, I got warnings my memory was almost full.

    I have a laptop Lenovo bought in the spring of 2008 running on Vista Home Premium.  After years of basically no problem, I got warnings my memory was almost full.  I'm no computer guy, I'm a retired OTR trucker who now lives for people with disabilities.  I checked my system and found Lenovo had two partitions on the hard drive.  The main logic were my programs were only 30gig on a disk hard 150 gigabytes.

    After talking to some friends who know more then me and research, I copied all my personal files on a stick to 4gig and erased the hard drive.  Spent New Years day adaptation of files, wipe the HD, install Vista again and then 6 and hours of updates.

    Monday, I installed my old files, installed new software and reinstall some of my previous, as well as several updates of Windows.

    Tuesday a finer adjustment and more windows updates.

    Today, Wednesday, right off the bat I installed another Windows update.  Update has been installed, computer shut down, restarted, then the computer stopped at step 1 of 3 @ 97%.  I went for half an hour to come back to an error screen telling me I had a corrupted file and to reinstall Vista and using my factor disc repair system.  I wasn't allowed this option.

    I subsequently through trying different restarts that File:\Windows\system32\winload.exe has been corrupted or damaged or missing Windows update attempt.  Given that I had my Windows disk that I was never worried before making a boot disk.  I/we (family of 6) do not have the financial means to purchase recovery discs, go to a tech help.  We are ourselves.  Can someone help me out here?  Are all my personal details on my laptop, a lot of money and time tied up in programs, I can't access.

    I don't know how this forum works.  My email is * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    P. S.

    With all this, if I have to reinstall windows I better upgrade to a 32-bit on a 64-bit?  This will cause problems with existing programs? I see a noticeable improvement in speed?  I checked and I can't change to 64-bit.

    Hello

    Since you have a Lenovo, you can try to get to WinRE among advanced startup options (f8) and performa than a system restore or if you must organize a drive to install Windows Vista full version and try to perform a system restore in Windows recovery environment and check if that helps.
    For more information, you can consult the following articles:

  • Installed Adobe on the K drive, now my computer has assigned portable K:\ drive to my hard drive. I am reader not valid error 1327 J:\.

    Hello

    You must be sure that programs use the drive letter that you define or
    you will need to change it back when needed. The latter would be the
    more great pain in the long term.

    Most programs allow you to change the data reader. If the reader is a program
    installed on and then after he moved to the drive letter, you will need to re - install the
    program.

    I hope this helps.

    I just installed Firefox on a new machine. The message indicated in the question appears frequently. The updater executable is called "setup.exe, developed by Bechiro S.L. Norton call this file "Unproven", unknown stability, very few users, very new, not proven.

    Is it approved by Mozilla or is it malware?

    Do you recommend running the installation?

    Hello sperrybream, no download that is not from mozilla.org is approved by mozilla. as you have described the issue, it seems certainly doubtful ("It is recommended to update your system drive now" - there is no such thing as a system drive) & I would definitely recommend not not to react on the popups from unknown sources.

    In addition, you have a malicious this addon. Please go to firefox > addons > extensions & Delete SuperLyrics-16 0.93.19 & GamingWonderland 5.40.2.42655. also, go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a scan of your security system complete different tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

    Hello

    I saw the 0x0000007B BSOD caused by trying to install XP on a disk hard while the BIOS is designating the reader as AHCI instead of IDE. XP has no native AHCI drivers, resulting in a stop 7B. Unless the PC had originally Vista or Win 7, but it might be useful to check that it is not likely.

    If the BIOS is set to AHCI, you could do one of three things (depending on whether your PC has a floppy drive)...

    1 find the Setup F6 disk on AHCI support at installation time (start with the manufacturer's website if you do not already have such a thing). Watch the very hit F6 prompt early in the installation process.

    2. change the setting in BIOS on IDE / ATA

    3. create a new "slipstreaming" installation disc drivers AHCI in the existing installation disc, see http://www.nliteos.com/index.html

  • DVD TSSTcorp drive opens randomly on the new Latitude

    My DVD drive opens at random.  I have a Latitude d830 (NEW June 2008) with a TSSTcorp DVD +-RW TS - L632H drive and randomly, the drive opens automatically.  I have had this it under several operating systems, XP, Linux, and when it is booting Linux on the same drive.  It seems to be OS independent and is not due to a virus, as he jumped open on a new XP installation before that it never hit the Internet or loaded with other programs.  It opens with no disc in the drive. Also, I tried to update the firmware.  It also did not help. I have upgraded the BIOS as soon as I got the laptop.  I was considering downgrading the BIOS, but after seeing many reviews here and other places with the same defect on other computers, I'm sure it's not a BIOS problem.   I thought I'd call Dell for a replacement because it seems to happen about once a day and embarrassing to be a very new feature.

    Ideas?
