[QUOTE="Rolo, post: 422857, member: 37118"] It depends. It could have been just a head bounce and not indicative of imminent failure. This is why we have regular backups: assume your hardware [I]will [/I]fail one day [I]without warning[/I], because we typically don't get warnings. I would torture test the thing and if it performs without issue, I'd still use it even if I could replace it immediately. [/QUOTE]
