Greg,
I'm sorry to hassle you like this but I can't find your email anywhere
due to your spam prevention.
Did you ever get a solution for this problem
http://www.mcse.ms/message1756020-1.html
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs/browse_frm/thread/3aba16852d34e2f8/1ae3b80c1ddb2e1b?lnk=st&q=30000+NtFrs&rnum=2&hl=en#1ae3b80c1ddb2e1b
NTfrs, 30000 ms problem - and the woman from MS was telling you it's a
hardware error)
Drop me an email (if you can please) - I don't have spam prevention but
gmail blocks it all pretty well anyhow.
Thanks.
- Scott
P.S I'm using a 2.5" USB external caddy for backups on my server - I
thnik this has something to do with it - but I'm not sure.
fingers crossed it's not the hard disks dying (software raid 5 - don't
ask why)...
