1. With any disk error make sure that you have as good as backup as
possible.
2. Make sure that you have the most current ECO for the DQDRIVER. I
seem to remember one coming out.
I just replaced a defective IDE drive in my DS10. It let the problem be
known by losing part of bitmap.sys so that it could not be mounted.
5 minutes into the restore, backup started complaining that directories
that it just created were no good. When I stopped the restore to
investigate, the disk would only make clicking noises.
I have since found out on the vendor's web site that means it is dead.
The vendor confirmed that and replaced it as it was still under
warrantee, with almost 8 months to go. But the new IDE drives that I
recently bought for addtional backups only have 1 year warantees.
I would see if DFG has problems with an backup/physical copy of your
disk if you can do that.
