Database server is having problems

Sorry for the delay in relaying this information to you guys. HMW will most likely be down for the next 72 hours until this problem is resolved. I need to make a backup of the entire site's database first before I will authorize this hardware change and server restore.

The Trouble Ticket you entered into Server Command of EV1Servers.net has been modified. The following notes have been made to your ticket.

It appears that sda is going bad, and will need to be replaced. Since this is a hardware failure you will need a restore and the restore, obviously will be of no charge to you. All we need is the go ahead to bring your server down for this maintenance or a good date and time thats convenient for you. Your server only holds two drives so we can remove your sdb drive temporarily to slave the old master to the new master drive for data recovery. Please let us know how you would like to proceed. Thank you.

Perfect timing, I've got to move out this weekend. Nothing to distract me from that....except Gears of War and Dethklok.

Sweet. Big ups on the "official" word, settles everything a bit.
