I came home to find my 1.1TB disk array in a sick state, a drive is

I'm running 2.4.19-rc1-xfs on a dual Athlon with a 3ware 7xxx controller
and 6 160G Maxtor drives. I repaired the drive (and ordered a new one) and
after reboot everything seems to be okay. It does seem a little strange
that XFS would fail this way....
Normally XFS would detect corruption and shutdown the fs. Did you see
anything about this in the logs?
What extra modules/patches do you have loaded? Is the 3ware controller
loaded with the latest firmware and drivers?
