I have a 750Gb 3-member software raid1 where 2 partitions are always present and the third is regularly rotated and re-synced (SATA disks in hot-swap bays). The timing of the resync seems to be extremely variable recently, taking anywhere from 3 to 10 hours even if the partition is unmounted and the drives aren't doing anything else and regardless of what I echo into /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_min or _max. Is there some way to tell if the drives are going bad or speed it up consistently if they aren't? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
