StarAoE Service v5.5 (Build 20091120, WinXP x86) on a Windows Server 2003 R2 SP1. On a mirror array on a Coraid Chassis, Disk are all healthy, MTU is at 9000 with jumbo frames activated on both (network card + switch).

We have multiples error on my aoe drive :
{Delayed Write Failed}
The device, \Device\Harddisk1, is not ready for access yet.

And my event viewer is full of these and it's erratic.

I need to do a chkdsk every 2-3 days because a my ntfs table is getting corrupted.

Anyone have a hint or know what may cause this problem ?

Thanks a lot

They are not related to initiator BTW. It means initiator cannot wire the data to target so it looks like it's a target / network issue.
What do you use as a target? Also try to check network connectivity. And increase disk timeout values:

Let us know about results. That's it...
