This is the only device on the bus. The errors occur on many blocks, but not all the time on any one block. The drive passes the analyze/compare test in format(8S), so it looks like the drive only fails this way just after a seek. sd0b: Error for command 'write' sd0b: Error Level: Fatal sd0b: Block 9504, Absolute Block: 9504 sd0b: Sense Key: Hardware Error sd0b: Vendor 'MAXTOR' error code: 0x3 Any clues? -- Glenn Gribble glenn@synaptics.com uunet!synaptx!glenn
