I know, BIG-IP 6400 have Compact flash. It dosen’t support DMA. And read that related Sol doc.

i understand 6400 has both compact flash (hda) and hard drive (hdc).

e.g.

have you tried file system check? if the error persists, i think you had better open a support case.

Thanks nitass, I receive RMA because 'UncorrectableError' support team said, UncorrectableError usually means that some parts of your hard drive is not readable. If a build up of these errors occur, it can be that the hard drive may fail in the future or parts of it have already failed. If parts of the hard drive cannot be read or written due to these uncorrectable errors. In worst case scenario, it would fail completely and the system will fail to boot up.
