I installed 'Intel Matrix Storage Console' version 6.2.

It's stating 'Error Occurred' on 'Device Port 0'

'A drive in a RAID 0 volume is failing. Try to back up data immediately.'

The '(0)' (I believe) refers to the device number and is not an error
code. This is what threw me off.

I backed everything up and I'll clone the dying drive to an identical
replacement.

I ran the Western Digital diagnostics again and it says that everything
is peachy.

After you have backed up, maybe connect the drive directly and
post its SMART attributes here. Maybe we can spot some problem.
I don't know the WD usilities, but for Maxtor both the disks and
the diag-software are over-optimistic in their thresholds. The
attributes themselves tell the true story, however.
