Help getting crushed by this
i did DBCC CHECKDB and one of the DB gave Msg 823, Level 24, State 2, Line 2 I/O error 21(The device is not ready.) detected during read at offset 0x0000000001c000 in file 'E:\MSSQL2000\Data\FTSWE_Data.MDF'.
I was working on a remote server, from my, local host accessing a remote DB.
Also i was on VPN.

Error 823 is nasty. It's a hard IO error
See Paul Randall's site for "823". he wrote DBCC CHECK DB
...it says that an I/O operation failed at the OS level and the I/O subsystem is causing corruption...
I'd double check your backups now and call them to make sure they know something is wrong.

Probably belongs on serverfault. Anyhow, I would contact whomsoever is hosting the box, it seems like there is a nasty disk error brewing. I hope you have backups, etc.
