I just brought up the "Disk Utility" in Fedora. This is really, really good.
It actually helps you determine what is wrong with the disks. Seems to me
mounting disks vertically (on their side) is a bad idea as I have a failing
Seagate and a failing Maxtor whereas other disks which I've had horizontal
(normal mounting) are lasting longer (4+ years). Bad sectors at about 4
years.
