Hi Everyone
Hoping someone will have insight/information...
I have a Apple tower pro running 10.6 with Apple RAID card that has been giving me the error message "degraded". raid set includes three drives 2 tb each... running raid 5. We've sent it for service twice, the hard drives are fine, had the the raid controller card replaced and logic board replaced. . The service guy says it was working out of the shop, but the error showed up back the first time we restarted. I am about to rebuild the raid before we send it back again... All 4 bays have green circles, so the disks are fine, but I notice drive in bay 2 says it is in "Roaming" as its state. What is roaming ? I've looked through the Apple raid utility manual, and spent time on apple discussion boards. People mention the error but no answer from anyone about what it means... Im frustrated :(
I'm amazed that a manual wouldn't list and define all the possible error messages...

thanks for any help...
