should I try for a low level format of the disk? or should I RMA this already?

Most likely support is going ask you to format the boot device and/or log device, either before or after running the HQIP test.

I had these log entries on several Boxes running 5.0.3 ... After uprgading to 5.0.4 the Disk repaired itself

It was a bug in 5.0.3 my vm64 was generating a log disk failure, but none of my 100Ds were doing it. Support said it was a bug. Stopped with 5.0.4
