Unfortunately, it couldn't fix the problem. I still get the following errors and the system goes "read only" after a couple of minutes. EXT3-fs warning (device dm-0): ext3_clear_journal_err: Filesystem error recorded from previous mount: IO failure EXT3-fs warning (device dm-0): ext3_clear_journal_err: Marking fs in need of filesystem check. EXT3-fs warning: mounting fs with errors, running e2fsck is recommended EXT3 FS on dm-0, internal journal EXT3-fs: recovery complete. EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. It seem formatting the /mnt/raid is the way to go.
