My Dell XPS 8100 system has been crashing frequently, and after the automatic reboot, the Intel Rapid Storage Tech then rebuilds the RAID 1 configuration. The process takes hours to complete, and at the end there are no hard errors with either of the 715gig drives. How do I trouble shoot this to determine if one or both of the storage arrays needs replacement, or if this is a software or application issue?
