    Booted up a server after 6 months ...

    and it's still "Checking disk.." after about 1 hour. Should I just let it go ? How long can this thing take ? It's an 80GB (Raid 0)

      did it crash the last time it was up and running?

        No, it has never crashed. I shut it down, unplugged it awhile back and put it away until now. I only used it for backing up my live servers once a week.

          You do backups on a RAID-0 array?

          Oh my..

            No, sorry.. it's a Software Raid 1. Both drives are mirrored, not striped. Looks like something is really slow at the moment though.

              Server came up anyway, just took a long time for disk check.

                That is odd if the server didn't crash the last time you had it on.

                Glad you got it working again!

                  battery is probably going dead in it and couldn't find all the cmos information. Thats the most common problem.
