My new RAID 1 array with the OS seem to be faulty. Twice the computer has frozen when I'm using Firefox.
The error message was "Hot spare disk problem on SRCSASRB".
Suggestions?
Asus P5Q PRO, ICH10R, Win 7, OS on two Intel 320 SSDs in the new first RAID 1 array, backup on two WD HDDs in the one-year old second RAID 1 array, Intel Rapid Storage Technology 10.6.0.1002.
Could you please provide us with the system report from the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology?
You can obtain it by going to Help > System Report.
Here it is:
(And: I have never had a hot spare disk installed on the system.)
