Hi Jeremy:

Thanks for your detailed response.  Here are the answers I have thus far:

I was not at the system at the time.  I never have had a disk in the drive
nor is /cdrom mounted currently.  I have dump backups that run in the
middle of the night on the various filesystems.

# dmesg | grep -i ata
atapci0: <Intel ICH5 UDMA100 controller> port 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6,0x170-0x177,0x376,0xfc00-0xfc0f at device 31.1 on pci0
ata0: <ATA channel 0> on atapci0
ata1: <ATA channel 1> on atapci0
atapci1: <Intel ICH5 SATA150 controller> port 0xeff0-0xeff7,0xefe4-0xefe7,0xefa8-0xefaf,0xefe0-0xefe3,0xef60-0xef6f irq 18 at device 31.2 on pci0
ata2: <ATA channel 0> on atapci1
ata3: <ATA channel 1> on atapci1

I skipped the disks, of course.

I'll take a look at this page.
