Thanks! Didn't know about that diagnostic disc. Unfortunately the diagnostic disc won't work on my server. I see something about a unknown command and then it drops to the DOS console. The diagnostic disc works fine on my workstation, so I think the burn succeeded. Anyway, I ran badblocks on the drive and it reported a bunch of failures so I think the drive is b0rked. The drive is less than two years old, but I think it only had a one year warranty. Markku, do you know what the RMA procedure is for Seagate drives in Finland? Can't hurt to try. Rasmus
