[ale] Seagate Hdd Not Lining Up!?

[Matt Rideout]

I wonder if you could be running out of inodes? What's the output of 
each of the following?

df -i
df -h

If the first command isn't showing that you're out of inodes, but have 
disk spare to spare, also try running the following, substituting in 
whatever device the drive is assigned to:

fdisk -l /dev/sdb
