I've had a chance to go over the release notes for the BIOS update I
mentioned earlier and there were some patches to the routines that deal with
sleep and hibernation modes. And it was drives coming out of sleep mode
which took drivewire down 99% of the time. So it looks like that was where
the source for my drivewire troubles originated. Why the drives themselves
were going to sleep when specifically set to stay on remains a mystery that
I can't duplicate.
I never even considered the BIOS as a possible source for my dw problems.
It was a fluke that I even ran across this BIOS update. Debugging via
coincidence. Ya gotta love it.
