I was using older rack mounted proliant systems running RAID 1. It turn out that I did not have a hardware issue, but apparently the most recent Debian upgrade forced more of the RAID activity to the hardware and all 5 of them puked, throwing bad drive errors ever more frequently. I have not found the time or desire to dig into the solution to this so we are currently on a very old Compaq.
We have a slowly moving plan for migration to a real ISP (with hardware backups and multiple internet lines), an honestly I will be glad to get it off my hands. Thank you for the offer though.
Once I don't have to take care of this box I may reformat my proliants (Since I have all new drives for them) and put my gaming stuff back up, but again it depends on how motivated I am.
