I wonder if I'm seeing something like Matt is seeing with the drive
continually being woken up. I know most of the time it just sits idle
from a user's perspective, but I've done nothing to stop daemons or
anything like that. It runs screen savers, gets used every day for an
hour or two, but is always powered up so that I can administer it from
350 miles away.
   

I originally noticed the problem after having the drives for 4 weeks. 
They LCC was at around 27,000 on each drive until I changed the timeout 
on the drives to 300 seconds.
