Followed the Fix Common Problems advice and rebooted.

Apparently my Fix Common Problems is now complaining about it.

Here are the logs. I really hope that it's something normal or can be fixed, this was the replacement HDD for the one that had to be RMA'd trojancarabao-smart-20230723-0854.zip trojancarabao-diagnostics-20230723-1245.zip

New HDD is throwing errors again. I'm starting a SMART extended self-test, then I'll post the diag after. Not sure why it's throwing errors again. I really hope it's not a dud.

Yes, replaced I the cable. I've actually replaced them 3 times. But still the crc errors persist so I'm gonna assume it's the HBA which I plan to eventual replace. But since the only reputable HBA vendor I know is in the US and I'm in the PH I'll have to be patient and buy 2 NVMes as a replacement cache when I can afford it and retire this HBA. Also the HDDs for the cache are really old 1TBs, only used them because the SDDs got bricked. They're pretty much on their last legs.

Result of the long SMART test. Sorry shut down my desktop which the browser that had it on was.

Ah! Thank you for clearing that up! Starting the Extended test now =D Though my future goal is to retire this HBA and move the cache to two onboard nvmes since this HBA has bricked 3 SSDs and possibly a 10TB. But for some reason these 4 old 1TB are safe. That what I get for buying from the local amazon ripoff here in the Philippines. I've learned my lesson. Though I plan a replacement in the future from "The Art of the Server" and just ship it here. At least it'll be form a trusted brand.

Are you sure @JorgeB? Because it looks like the data-rebuild is writting data to it

Damn should I stop the data rebuild and run the test?

Darn I only ran the short SMART Test @JorgeB, it passed though! Thanks so much for the help guys! I now know what to do in that situation and that really help! You both rock @JorgeB @itimpi!

Ah nevermind the moment I hit the last step you gave it started the data-rebuild automatically =D I'm surprised it didn't require a Pre-clear first is that a 6.12 thing? In the previous version it required it.

Score! You da man @itimpi Though before the rebuild should I still run Preclear or only if it prompts me?

Cool! Thanks for the update I'll try that! By the way how to I restart the partition rebuild though? I was halfway through when this drive threw a monkey wrench into the whole process.

Cool! Thanks for the insight!

Oh wow it finished right away. I'm gonna post the diag now. trojancarabao-diagnostics-20230719-0028.zip

Thank you so much @JorgeB! That worked for me! I ran xfs_repair -v /dev/md2p1

Can I ask how I can look up the partition number even with the ‘md’ devices (e.g. /dev/md2p1)?

See there in lies my problem that was a new HDD to replace one that I had to RMA and halfway through the data rebuild it crapped out. So the rebuild didn't even finish. So do I let the xfs_repair which apparently I am using wrong finish then figure out how to restart the data-rebuild? Are those my next steps. xfs_repair -v /dev/sdf Sorry if I sound irrate, thanks for the help. I'm just having a monumentally bad month.

It was a new HDD and in the middle of doing a data-rebuild. Is just reformatting it and preclearing it then trying a data-rebuild an option?

That is on the link. So it's not possible to substitute it with the sdf at the end of the drive name? xfs_repair -v /dev/sdf Unless I have to us that "md1" system. I have no clue to to look that up in my system. I tried it but it didn't work. Can you help a brother out? xfs_repair -v /dev/md2 Can you help me out please?

This is the new HDD Disk 2 WDC_WD101EFBX-68B0AN0_VH004PAM - 10 TB (sdf) Is this the correct syntax? xfs_repair -v /dev/sdf

Here you go. I may have accidentally clicked update OS though. Scrub didn't finish though. trojancarabao-diagnostics-20230718-2156.zip

Looks like shutdown worked. I'll replace the cache cables and restart and try to get to maintenance mode like the walkthrough you linked suggested.

I can't seem to stop the array or cancel the data rebuild. I tried the reboot button but it errored out. The Spin Down button doesn't work either. Should I just hard reset the NAS? Ah yes the cache, sorry about that. This is my first NAS and I spent most of the budget on the HDDs. The cache was supposed to be a bunch of SDDs I had lying around but they got bricked. I'm starting to thing the HBA I'm using is the culprit. Finding a reliable source of HBA vendors over here in the PH has been difficult for me.

Yes, I do. Should I stop the data rebuild and run the preclear first? Usually it does but for some reason it didn't this time. I assumed it was because the data rebuild initiated right away. Also if I stop the data rebuild to do the preclear can I restart it after? Also where can I go to do that? Sorry, I'm in mid freak out over here. 10TB HDD are expensive here in the Philippines and every time my NAS freaks out I feel like I've just set a whole bunch on money on fire. How do I do the preclear? I can't even mount the drive anymore from unassigned devices.
