I've got WHS setup on an Abit IC7-G w/ P4 2.8c and 1gb ram. As far as hard drives go I have (9) 1TB drives, 1 drive connected to the board (OS) and the other 8 are on a SATA controller card.

Here's the issue, I had all this setup and running perfectly for quite some time... I think I might know what caused this*...

Anyways back to the issue, the system will turn on and run for a couple minutes or hours, it varies. Then it will freeze up and BSoD. I'll restart it and it'll get to where it normally would load the OS then it will say "no system disk found". If I turn it off, reset the CMOS it'll post fine but as normal after a couple minutes or a couple hours it will BSoD again. I have taken the OS HDD out and ran every benchmark/stress test on it that I can find and it passes all with flying colors so I don't think it's the drive. Does this lead you to believe that it's the board as well?

Thanks for the input and sorry for the confusion :).


*A couple months ago the PCP&C PSU that I had installed in it had a meltdown and fried itself, everything else seemed to be OK though.
 
I just tried a OS reinstall on the same harware as listed above and right before the installation was completed I got and error and had to abort the install.
 
I ordered a new board chip and ram (will replace HTPC) so the file server will get an Asus A8N-SLI Premium, X2 4200+ and 2gigs of ram. Hopefully the hardware transition goes smoothly and everything is picked up after the new OS install.
