Well, it says it timed out waiting for a response back from the drive. So, the drive didn’t return the data in one minute of time. Perhaps your drive is going to sleep at that time due to some power setting? Or your drive is indeed slow. ---

Something in your pc (assuming the disks are internal) is a bottleneck. You could check Process Monitor (from MS) to check the I/O and/or CPU/RAM usage. That might give you some clues. ---

But on all nodes at the same time not like 10minutes difference, same minute same second. Sleep settings set to never sleep too ---

There are only two devices that can freeze/seize up Windows, GPU driver & HDD. In case of the latter, you may not necessarily notice your entire disk subsytem to be frozen, as long as there is ram the kernel will continue to service, system will appear fine - but upon any disk access, will freeze until the bus /flush/clears/reconnects. #1. Check your OS drive for errors; #2. Check your three remaining drives, any one drive can freeze a system. #3. If any of those are dynamic .vhdx, and you have previously expanded any volumes on them. 2 cents ---

Do DISM online repair first, then SFC /scannow after that, on your OS drive. GL ---

If you don’t do DISM repair first, even though SFC finds errors it may not solve your problems. If you don’t go back and do DISM online repair, then SFC. The DISM repairs the repository that SFC uses to do it’s repairs. But sounds good enough for now… 🙂 ---

My steps would be: 1. CHKDSK 2. Make sure the drive had enough power / disable APM 3. Disable AAM or set to performant node, if the disk supports it 4. Change to badger cache. 5. Increase timeout to 5m0s or something To be sure: are all nodes running on the same disk? ---

You see its a diffrent problem here all nodes crash at the same time with same error. This had to be something else and in my case sfc /scannow helped and nodes didnt crash in 2 days. ---

sfc /scannow helped while chkdsk didnt find anything wrong and I do have my pc on power saver. My cpu goes down to 1.5 ghz sometime that might be too slow. ---

> [@batelis](#): > > You see its a diffrent problem here all nodes crash at the same time with same error. Yeah, so I think it might be underpower. Si hoe are they powered? How many disks/ hoe many Watt? And are all nodes running at different drives? ---
