[itdiscuss] Bad spots on Raid 5 array

[Steve Huffman]

I have a 3 drive Raid 5 array that has developed bad spots a couple of
time in the last 2 weeks. In each instance chkdsk has been able to
repair. My question is, how can I figure out which physical drive has
had these spots?

 

The only way I have found out is when a user can't access his data or
when the nightly backup fails on a file. I do receive an Event ID 55 in
the system event viewer when the error occurs, but all that event say is
to run chkdsk.

 

Thanks,
