SCB timed out ? what about S.M.A.R.T. ?

Tue Dec 14 00:49:37 PST 2004

Hello!

today in my periodic(8) output I got another one of these scary
messages from a server of mine (always the same, a Dell Poweredge 600
SC with FreeBSD 4.8-release).

It's third message in a couple of weeks.
I'm starting to worry about its health... :(

Besides replacing the disk, what could I do in the meanwhile ?
I'ld try tools like /usr/ports/sysutils/smartmontools but it works on
5.x only.

Any suggestion for a good FreeBSD 4.x compatible SCSI SMART (S.M.A.R.T. ?)
disk monitoring tools ?

ANY hints is welcome! :-)

Thanks in advance!
