Dear Members,

Our Server GAMMA is undergoing a Hard drive change. Some sectors of the Hard disk were found to be inaccessible. We have identified this as an early sign of Disk failure and hence decided to replace the Hard drive.

The entire process involves :-
  1. Purchasing a New drive.
  2. Installing OS and CPanel on this new drive.
  3. Switching it to server.
  4. Copying accounts on this drive.
  5. Mounting this drive as primary.
The entire process can take anywhere from 5-8 hours.

We will try our level best to restore things as fast as possible. Thank you for your support and assistance.

Sorry but only saw this after creating a new topic on the hosted members area.
Anyway my account is still unacessible, although you said server fixed.
Is there any data loss? Thanks for the information...
