    Hello,
    My Original Question,

    Tru64 4.0G AlphaServer 2000 and I have ran into problems

    Last week we had power go down in the computer room. When power was restored I
    noticed that I had a hard drive go down. It had a fault light on it. Member 1
    on a raid-5 4 member set.

    I put in my spare drive and the system auto rebuilt the drive.
    Since it was under contract I got another drive to replace my spare.

    On Sunday we had another power outage (the UPS is old 1/2 size of the computer
    room) and I had a failed drive again. Same member, same raid set, same
    rebuild.

    Is there anything else I need to check to see why this keeps on happening?

    The only Response I received was from kazuro.furukawa@kek.jp who said it
    might be a heat issue.

    I talked to HP tech and he said don't worry about it to much because of the
    age of the drives etc.
