unstability due to large scsi disk



Hi

I have just setup a redhat 6.1 duel pentium file server with a 36Gig scsi
disk and up till now everytime it reboots it comes up with errors on the
filesystem mounted on the scsi.   I was wondering whether anyone else has
found that large scsi disks are unstable to use as a mainstream image
fileserver?

There may be a problem with the duel pentium server itself .  ie. i
manually fsck the scsi and fixed the filesytem problems then rebooted...
when i went to log on the entire system crashed... the screen went blank,
keyboard died, front panel power switch couldn't be used to reboot.  i had
to reboot from the power switches at the back of the server.  Luckilly it
came back up smoothly after that.

So basically i am concerned as to the reliability and integrity of large
filesystems mounted on scsi disks and of duel pentium servers with linux
os.

any thoughts would be appreciated
