Missing, or broken?


Quick question. Having some issues with a backup drive on a Cpanel box that started just recently. Checked dmesg, and the last few lines are below:
Quote:
end_request: I/O error, dev hdb, sector 0
Buffer I/O error on device hdb, logical block 0
end_request: I/O error, dev hdb, sector 625142440
Buffer I/O error on device hdb, logical block 78142805
end_request: I/O error, dev hdb, sector 0
Buffer I/O error on device hdb, logical block 0
end_request: I/O error, dev hdb, sector 12375
end_request: I/O error, dev hdb, sector 12375
end_request: I/O error, dev hdb, sector 12375
EXT3-fs error (device hdb1): ext3_find_entry: reading directory #2 offset 0
This would appear that hdb1 is failing or has already, no?
If I try to read from it, I get:
Code:
/bin/ls: reading directory .: Input/output error
This is with having it mounted as /directory (not it's real name), and trying to view files in there.

The provider is telling me the error is that the drive doesn't exist, and with the above that just seems unlikely. It had been backing up to this particular drive and mountpoint for a few months now without issue. Weird.

It's not even showing on fdisk, so I think it died shortly after for good. They'll know for sure once they open it. Thanks, Steven.
