Yes they tell you 'it's broken' and then there is a silence while you 
wait to hear why they think it's broken, and they wait for you to fix it.

Well you are firing on a lot of cylinders there the only thin difference 
is are you running a kernel from the last 6-8 weeks or so?  I guess not 
on those unrebooted Opterons.  I don't have any basis for my suspicion 
except that the behaviours on my box of knocking two HDDs to death from 
different manufacturers and the fact it was fine for a good long while 
beforehand.  And I guess I know there is libata and kernelside work to 
do with ATA in kernels around that time.  But it can as easily, well, 
more easily, be a powersupply problem in my case.
