I had a HDD fail on my media server and that screen gives me ptsd. I could clean it up with fsck for a while, but it meant plugging a keyboard and monitor into the box. A huge PIMA, I should have swapped out that drive the first time it happened.

You didn't immediately swap the failing drive? I feel sorry for the media server. It was trying it's best

Do you not like sound of the read head scraping against the platter on spin up? Weirdo... It's a rare treat, so you have to appreciate it while it's there.
