      RC3 has been superseded. You should upgrade your firmware to 2.0 release and see if the problem goes away.

            Check the system log from the console (such as clog /var/log/system.log or dmesg -a) and you'll probably find that your HDD is failing and tossing a bunch of DMA timeouts or g_vfs_* errors.
