Hi List,
HP compaq nx7000 laptop,
FreeBSD gahr-laptop 6.2-RC1 FreeBSD 6.2-RC1 #2: Wed Nov 29 13:45:17
CET 2006     root@gahr-laptop:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GAHR  i386

since a few days I have problems with my disk drive, a FUJITSU MHT2060AH/006C:

ad0: WARNING - WRITE_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=75192848
ad0: WARNING - WRITE_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=75192848
ad0: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA status=51<READY,DSC,ERROR>
error=84<ICRC,ABORTED> LBA=75192848
 g_vfs_done():ad0s2f[WRITE(offset=12332400640, length=16384)]error = 5

This four line are repeated in my /var/log/messages several times in a
short time slice, with only the LBA value changing.

I sometimes have spontaneous reboot, no kernel dumps, and I had to
disable soft-updates to prevent filesystem corruptions..

So, should I consider buying myself a new harddisk, or it's possible
that the problem resides in the filesystem layer?

Thanx in advance,
regards
