Find out from the manufacturer what the minimum speed is that the drive needs 
to be running at before shoeshining (probably 50-60% of the max speed), then 
make sure you are streaming to that drive fast enough. Using a tool like 
"iostat -xtc" or MRTG graphing should give you an idea of how fast they are 
moving...
