I have a second box which I use as a file server and second Everquest comp. The Hardware in the system are -
Motherboard - Asus A7N266-VM
CPU - Athlon 1800 (older model)
Mem - 2 x 256 pc 2100
Vid - Radeon 9800 Pro (1 external power connector required)
SiS IDE Raid 0/1 PCI card
40gig WD HD (2 meg buffer)
2 x 80gig WD HD (8 meg buffer) - Mirrored
generic DVD/CDRW drive
generic 350w PS
The other night, while EQ was running, I heard some clicking noises from the HD (similar the noise a HD makes when being powered up). Soon after Win2k (Server) crashed w/ a BSOD.
The Error was a KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR with a related status code of STATUS_IO_DEVICE_ERROR.
I ran HD scans w/ the WD utilities and the drives are fine. Same with the memory. The box is stable at while doing normal desktop apps. Once I load EQ (and therefore tax the CPU and vid card), one of the HDs starts making noises and eventually the system will crash with the earlier error.
Tonight I'm going to pull the mirror array offline and see if the crash happens.
