What hardware can cause crashes?

[Steve Franks]

My time honored method is to start swapping parts - I'm getting my but
kicked by a couple of brand-new disks right now.  Swapped out
controllers and cables, the system still is useless, but I'm now sure
it's the disks.  Better yet, I know it's the brand-new disks, not the
old ones.  Fortunately, it's not the disk I have BSD on, just a data
drive, otherwise it would be hard to swap out and isolate, but with
bsd, you can swap pretty much every component but the root disk for a
new one and it will still boot.  It can get expensive fast, but what
can you do?
