Hi there,

you're just my last hope - I think.

I've posted this question at many Web-Sites in the last week, but nobody can help me.

For a view days I've created a Software Raid 5 (mdadm) under Ubuntu 7.10 32Bit Alternate with 4 x 233 GiB SATA II Hdds @ USB 2.0.

After that I want to create a Truecrypt-Volume on this md-Device what not should be a problem.

But the Process hangs after a view Minutes running and then whole System hangs. So I've pushed the Power-Button and the System writes something to the System-Hdd - but then nothing happens further. Then I have resetted the System.

After next boot I've assembled the Raid 5 again what function without any problem. The System even wont to resync anything.

After that I've build the Truecrypt-Volume on the whole md-Device without any Problem. 

Now my question: Is there any Methode to Test the integrity of die md-Device at low-level? Can I trust the Device?

Best regards,

Michael
