Computer Abuser ?

Temps look good.



Even brand new those voltage values looked exactly like that.

However.

When I bring up Gpu-z.

I have gotten Vrel a few times.

What am i missing?

if u get an IO error copying, I would get my important data backed up pronto. RAID0 is unforgiving. Defrag before cloning if its giving you IO errors during the copy. Windows might wait longer on the seek. Or try a different program like someone else suggested.

This is the utility I use to check the condition of my drives:

HDD Scan

a reply to: drewlander

I have ran Chekdsk.

Suddenly it straightened up and would let me again.

Something else that happened.

Was 4 separate times I was copying a folder from my C drive to my D drive.

And every single time just as the copy was to finish BSOD.

Happened every single time.

Don't think my raid is the problem.

Either hard drives/power supply is what might look like.

a reply to: neo96

Its possible power issue. Id sooner suspect other causes tho if you see nothing in the event viewer. Not one disk error? Not one controller error? Its happening in a different context then IMO, and the most likely bad RAM, which similar your power theory is also not likely log an error.

You can test the RAM theory if you have more than 1 stick too. Its uncommon for all sticks to go bad. Pop one stick out. Try the copy. You get BSOD, pop it back in and remove the other. Try copy. Process of elimination.

Also BSOD is caused by drivers sometimes but copying files I wouldnt suspect a driver issue.

a reply to: drewlander

I tested the memory. Came back as no issues.

Used the Microsoft built in Memory tester.

Heres the event viewer.

Practically speaking...Ive had issues with older software programs on brand new equipment...most all needed to be updated at the very least.

Seems though they SHOULD work...a lot of older software is not completely interpreted as it did with old...as in new digital features and encriptions on older programs..as in Analog to Digital, or Digital trying to correctly interpret Analog from 15 years ago

So of my old ones...just a few...do not work any longer. Mostly multi-tracking recording software(s)

a reply to: mysterioustranger

I don't use anything like that.

My software package is just the basic essentials.

Chrome/Comodo Internet Security, Kodi/Blender. Latest versions.

For backup Comodo Back it up/Paragon

And the latest drivers from Nvidia.

Plus Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool that's just a stand alone program not even installed.

Plus Adwcleaner and Kaspersky's TDSSKILLR that's also just a stand alone program not installed.

Plus I just re installed Windows 7 with SP!.

I think there is a hardware issue not software.

What ever happens Both Comodo Back it Up and Paragon let me back up my OS drive.

And I keep all my documents/pics etc on a completely different drive.

So if it does fail it mostly a matter of inconvenience.

Thankfully not a catastrophic loss.

So It BSOD'd again.

Same thing when trying to copy a folder from the C drive to the D drive.

So when it rebooted.

Copied from the C to my Nas.

And nothing happened except what was suppose to.

a reply to: mysterioustranger

Umm, I can see in that view you have 76 disk errors in the last 24 hours. What do they say specifically?

a reply to: drewlander

The driver detected a controller error on DeviceHarddisk3DR3

The driver detected a controller error on DeviceHarddisk4DR4.

The driver detected a controller error on DeviceHarddisk5DR5.

The driver detected a controller error on DeviceHarddisk2DR10

Is the general gist of them.

Under the Device Manager

Under General it says the device is working properly for the Marvel Raid Controller.

Under General it says the device is working properly for the Intel ICH10R SATA RAID Controller.

So ?

Driver corrupted?

But I am using the one from the ASUS website.

Think I changed my mind about the Samsung Evos.

I forgot I had 2 spare Sata ports open.

Which means I could Raid 4 el cheapo SSD's and get close to 1,000 mb/ 1 Gb.

Kingston has a TLC 120 for $49 on Newegg.

4 @120 is around 480. Of course take away format loss.

a reply to: neo96

The EVO drives have always been an issue Neo.

I bought several of them over the last few years and every one of them crapped out in 18 to 24 months.

That's why there were so cheap and then ended up suddenly disappearing for a while. From what you've posted your configuration looks fine.

I'd blame it on drive failure

The el cheapo route on the SATA is a better idea

a reply to: tothetenthpower

I think so too.

Twice the performance of a single EVO

At around the price of a single drive.

Little over.

Plus the ability to withstand 3 drive failures, and still keep my pc up.

a reply to: neo96

yeah I mean if you're going to do a raid, you might as well have drives that aren't going to die on you because they just feel like it one day lol

~Tenth

a reply to: tothetenthpower

Raid gets a bad rap these days.

It's not the old days anymore.

Backing up is just a simple mouse click away.

a reply to: neo96

That's crazy talk. I don't trust the cloud with anything.

Nor do I trust most operating systems to do it correctly without RAID lol

a reply to: tothetenthpower

LOL.

Cloud a new word for an old idea.

External Storage.

Have you tried switching out the SATA cables and/or the tried the other SATA ports? Could be a cable issue or motherboard issue if it isn't related to the power supply.

I don't do RAID anymore because a small glitch in the system or fluctuation in power could cause an issue. Happened to me several times and I ended up losing a lot of data but thankfully I backed up everything periodically on an external HDD.

I'm just asking since you mentioned that you kept your system on 24/7 for several years.
