BSOD during backup 0x0000000A

[jimsheep]

So, there I was backing up like a good little boy...

narrative aside, i got the dreaded bsod 0xA IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

during the subsequent forced boot and POST, my RAID controller threw an error, but i was too busy to do more than stare at it in mild disbelief and i didn't write it down. no big deal - i started RAID Xpert right away and it told me everything was good to go.

i'm not good at deciphering crash dumps, even with BlueScreenView (which is a lovely tool, i think...) so here's the relevant data.

also, maybe worth noting, i was using AOMEI Backupper to back my 2TB RAID1 array up to my 2TB external via USB3. i have restarted the backup, and so far so good - 1 hour in, 4 hours remaining.

Hiya and welcome to SevenForums!rb:

BlueScreenView is not lovely at all, it provides fake info. That's at least my opinion.

Anyways

BugCheck A, {0, 2, 1, fffff80003446fee}

Probably caused by : [COLOR="Red"]memory_corruption[/COLOR] ( nt!MmZeroPageThread+8f5 )

Please run MemTest86+ for 8 passes. It must be MemTest86+. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

hey, thanks for the quick reply. i will run memtest after work and hopefully this will be relatively painless.

just so i can streamline my process, if memtest reveals no errors, what next?

EDIT: also, the backup completed with no further errors.

Okay, but still run MemTest86+. It's weird if MemTest86+ dosen't show any errors because it should. But we'll get to that later if that scenario happens.
