Could be the board if both drives appear busted.
It could be the o/s. My 5.2.1 system has been getting similar errors
and halting.
See if maxtor has a drive checking utility. Some manufacturers like
seagate have a utility you burn on cd and boot off it. It allows you
to check the drives on the system independantly of the host os.
It may not be a final solution but is a step in the direction of
diagnosing the fault.
If the info on the drives was not backed up it obviously was not
important .
