I recently bought an IBM Ultrastar 18GB Model DDYS-T18350N
which is an UltraSCSI 10000 RPM drive. Here are the system
specifications:
DELL Precision 420
- Pentium III at 800MHz
- 256MB worth of RambusDIMMs
- (2) on-board Adaptec aic7899 Ultra160 SCSI adapters
- (1) 9.1GB - Fujitsu Model MAJ3091MP SCSI harddrive
I simply wanted to add the IBM drive for more disk space. I
am using linux-2.4.4-ac6. I made a single partition taking
up the entire disk and issued the following:
mke2fs -c -m1 /dev/sdb1
It starts out fine but then eventually it gets enough r/w
errors and locks the machine up. Below is the log output.
I can supply a kernel configuration file, but it probably
is not necessary. I have been following some of the threads
on the list concerning the aic7xxx driver, but may have
missed some. I apologize if this is old information. It
looks like a may have gotten a bad drive. Comments? Thanks.
