Hey,
This is one of those posts where I'm writing to ask if there's a simple answer :)
I have a trio of ADS enclosures, one of which is freshly back from an RMA. The enclosure that went out on RMA was purchased at about the same time the others were, and now another enclosure is starting to go on the fritz.
I keep getting "delayed write failures," so a popup appears saying something like "Could not save the file "..." on J:/M$ft -- all data was lost."
I've swapped drives out of this enclosure, and today I took my FW drives off of a 6-port hub I'd bought and have run them straight through my Audigy's FW port. Then I ran the disk diagnostic tools included in WinXP, repairing bad blocks, etc.
Is there something I'm missing? I checked to see if write-caching is turned off, and indeed it is. It only seems to be happening to one of my three enclosures. Could there be other issues causing this than just a bad enclosure?
Thanks,
- jim
