Drives unmounting.. Help!

[Jay A. Kelley]

I've filled out a support ticket, but want to post here:
I have 2 320 GB drives, and one 16gb (RED) CF Card.

Camera works fine for a while, then unmounts media without warning. Removing media and reinserting does not work. Once camera says it's unmounted, it will not see it unless you do a full restart.

This has happened across a number of builds. I'm on the latest one right now.

I doubt it's the drives, since all three have the same problem

I fear this is a hardware issue and camera will need to be sent in.

Hope someone has an answer.

do you have any spare drive cables to test it out on ? the cables tend to give out before anything else.

and it does the same thing on your cf card?

 

[Jay A. Kelley]

Yup.. Same thing on the CF Card... Which is why I did not think it was the cable

Are you by chance using a Berger mount? I've heard of several instances of this using the Berger after build 30 came around.

Yes Tim I AM using the Birger Mount. You mean you've heard of this using Birger?!

Any work arounds or fixes?

Same thing is happening on one of our cameras. Only one of the drives is affected though. It happened twice today during 1-2 min takes. 640G Drive Build 30.5
