Backing up a couple of clients to my WHS (1.0) worked ok, but Database Cleanup seemed to hang with no clear reason why. I decided to chkdsk all the server drives according to this advide: http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/whsfaq/thread/b5372407-1f24-4eff-9092-069c4b4f0cee
The chkdsk commands were issued in paraller. Most of them were finished within hours (I have seven drives in WHS, 500GB-2TB in size), but one of the chkdsk commands took about three or four days to finish! After it finally finished, I rebooted the server
and checked the event log. None of the errors there seem to point to the drive which took ages to chkdsk. WHS shows all the drives as healthy. I started manually the database cleanup once again. I don't think I can trust the server, even if the cleanup goes
through successfully. Any ideas how to proceed? The only thing I can think of is to take away the drives one by one and format & test them to see if the manufacturer diagnosis application finds one of them to be faulty.
