![]() So I kept working on the PC for another two hours trying to find something else wrong like bad memory or problems with Windows itself but it still all points to a bad HD. So I go into the PERC 6i's config and it shows SMART status as OK with no errors (both drives). When you used the PC it would actually boot up and run ok but for 30 seconds or so it'd run fine then explorer/whatever program would stop responding for a minute or so.Īnyways I'm thinking bad HD and didn't even realize it was a RAID array at first. Checked the event log and saw where numerous programs were crashing and services were timing out and closing. After checking it out for a while I thought it felt like it was a failing HD as I've seen enough of them to just have a feeling by the way it acts. He said his PC was running really slow and some programs would crash in Windows. It has a PERC 6i RAID card with two Seagate 1.5TB SATA drives (plain cheap SATA, not SAS drives) in a RAID 1 config. ![]() I have a friend that has a Dell Precision T7500.
