In my experience it takes less then 4 hours at high load with this app to turn up faulty hardware. If it does crash with this then replace the system or replace components until the crashing stops, run it for a week, then you can be pretty certain at least the hardware is stable. Also noticed your using pretty poor quality components for a storage server, promise raid? western digital "green" disks? Not exactly server grade. Suggest if you want stability you go with Western Digital RE3/4 disks and 3ware RAID(with a BBU so you can enable write back caching), at least.. Seagate have high grade SATA as well, you don't mention the model your using but I'd assume they are of similar quality as the "green" disks, i.e. not made for servers. Also I assume you have a decent UPS as well on all systems, never run a computer without a UPS(well unless it's a laptop). Did you build the systems yourself or did you buy them pre assembled? If you did it yourself I would verify the power supplies themselves are of decent quality and provide adequate voltage given the number of disks your working with. While there are plenty of good power supplies out there, the only one I will go out of my way to put money down on is PC Power & Cooling. nate
