"I've been getting this error recently, and not sure quite how to find out whats causing it, or at least prevent it from happening.
It happens on my F drive, which is a raid 0 striped setup with three harddrives. When using the computer, there is no performance issues or anything. But when I wake up in the morning, I get a Delayed Write Failed (Usually F:/Mft, but today I was awake when it happened and got a few others). When this error pops up, its after the computer has already automatically rebooted (Because all my programs are closed out).
This morning, during the virus scan the computer basically just choked, I could still use the drive as far as opening folders and whatnot, but the files themselves didn't exist. Downloading a file even on the C drive (With my browser which was also on the C drive) ended up failing as well. (Created the file, but file didn't exist and opened up a frozen dos box).
I've tried a program called cacheman and used settings I found that were supposed to help solve the issue, but the issue has persisted. If anyone knows of a decent harddrive diagnostic tool or knows some possible solutions that aren't requiring the purchase of new harddrives, I'd be glad to hear them.
Is there any way I can tell which drive it is, or reverse the RAID 0 setup? I'm only using half of the total space over all the drives, so I can go without one of the drives if I knew which was causing it and there was a way I could take the raid apart without moving all 500 gigs to another harddrive."
You guys are vastly more knowledgeable than I on this, any ideas?
