I have a stripped RAID array for my SSD's and every now and again the RAID controller makes a high-pitched noise and promptly kills my computer.
The computer then tries to reboot and the RAID array registers as disabled.
Another reboot and all is fine for the next couple of days (about 9-ish days between this one and the last one).
Any ideas?
Notes
- This is my first time setting up a raid and first time using ssd's
- OS is win7 64-bit
- rest of the pc is 4 gb ddr3, i3 @ 4ghz, 1gb 4870 ATI gfx.
- Raid Controller is Highpoint - Rocketraid 620
2There are two possibilities that spring immediately to mind: Your RAID controller doesn't like something it's seeing and the "high pitched noise" is an alarm (check the controller logs and see what they say), or the controller itself is flaky and should be replaced. – voretaq7 – 2011-09-13T20:34:25.443
1Stating which RAID controller you are using would be quite helpful. – Massimo – 2011-09-13T20:35:56.073
@massimo, voretaq7 - Added information. Is the controller logs in event viewer as normal? or somewhere else? – Stuart Blackler – 2011-09-13T21:24:41.440
