@minti You around? My Linux is being funny.

@eaglehooves Funny how? (Yes, I know I'm not @minti.)
-
@bitshift I keep getting these popups telling me one of my HDDs has an error, and when I open disk utility it tells me "disk is being used outside design perimeters."
-
@eaglehooves I can't say I've ever seen that before. But I believe that's related to SMART error reporting on the disk, which means you either have a dying disk, or a disk that's reporting itself as dying when it isn't. :S
-
@bitshift It's a semi-custom SSD.
-
@eaglehooves Ah, in that case you might well be (relatively) safe to tell it to ignore those warnings (assuming there is an option to ignore them) - I've seen a lot of reports that SSDs get falsely reported as failing by that component of the system. (Which is bad, and should be fixed, but at least it's a small load off your mind.)
-
@bitshift That's what I was thinking. It was just throwing a spectacular fit, more so than it ever did with bad HDDs. (And this thing would be the biggest pain in my flank ever to replace)
