Its happening on hda2 hdb2 and hdb5 , this happened once before but before I
could do anything the machine stopped working, we used the Disc's that came
with the drives and did an analysis... That took about 8hrs the last time
and everything was fine, we even sent the harddrives back to the seller who
had it check out by the manufacturer. They sent both back saying they where
fine, I re-installed everything and it ran fine for exactly 6months an a
day. I set this up for my friend at his print shop (just a file server but I
do weekly backups) so theres nothing to important on it.

Don't you mean /dev/hdb5, notice the b. Isn't that a second hard drive? If
so, can't he just toss in a new drive and then mirror hda onto hdb? I am new
to this so excuse me if this is a ignorant question. Thanks.

If your drive is truly failing, you will need to replace hda completely.
/dev/hda5 is just one partition on the drive.

You can try to reinitialize the partition and add it back to the mirror if
you think the drive is physically OK, but the filesystem got corrupted
somehow.
