Any views on the following,
RAID 10 (4 drives) working for a few years then one day the PC goes into a reset cycle. Eventually get into *windows and one of the drives has failed, said drive replaced and all is well. About a month later another drive fails, replaced all is well. Then within a few weeks the other two fail so at this point I get the fist two failed drives and run WD Lifeguard Diagnostic and they pass all tests.
I filled the first 'failed' drives with 0s and put them back in the RAID, now the first replaced drive is now reported as failed (brand new a few months ago).
What's the chance the on board RAID chip or *BIOS is corrupt, the reason I mention the BIOS is that when it was in a reset cycle at one point it failed and mentioned restoring BIOS or something. My over clocked settings were left intact but saved configurations were gone.
Sorry for the long winded post but I really am stuck.
