Check dmesg and see if you are having hardware errors on the drive. Make sure it is not failing Henry Henry B.

Everything typically run without any problems until the other day when, out the blue, an archive started failing. (I run it manually twice a month). I've tried to run it twice and it's failed each time with the same error. (Will paste below) I'm using the same backup drive that I've been using, so the permissions haven't change. The archive runs part way, before failing, so I can see two backup files show up on the drive, but not the other 4. Individually, the all 6 machines are backing up as usual, except a 20000 millisecond timeout issue that happens periodically.
