Hope everyone had a good 4th, So I managed to save up money and I will be buying 2 12tb to replace the parities which will replace disk 2 and 10 that have been having issues but first I will replace the PSU and cables and then add fans then hard drives I will update in the next two weeks thanks for your patience.

Thanks for this information @JorgeB sorry but I am super noob to this and the only one that does maintain it. Constant ATA Errors = ? and seems to be affecting Parity, Disks 4 and Disks 8 I am assuming this is power? or Sata Transfer Cables? Also Marvell is not a good controller for Sata expansion? I do have PCI slots available and Also if possible can get sata 6gb recommendations I am open too. What cables would i need to replace? All sata and power cables? My whole power supply? I just want to make sure I do everything right. I will want to try and switch these drives as soon as possible. I did sit down and studied about switching drives in unraid. I cannot switch the any drive to be higher than the parity. So I would need to replace the parity drives first to 16tb each and then with those two 10's switch the two 8tb or the other drives that are faulting which i need to figure out how to tell. hope that is right as well, Also hope everyone is having a Happy 4th!

Heads up was just curious but completely stopped the array, did the -v to everydrive noticed drive 2 and 10 taking 4/5 minutes while others took 40secs or so. Also when doing the parity out of the array being up its still taking a lifetime.

Sorry completely slipped my mind i thought i dragged the diagnostic to the post but i missed it here you go, and I have noticed that the tempertures are a little low i can clean it out and change the thermal but it has 5 fans and the room has a AC maybe i should add more fans? I have noticed another thing lately when dragging things it would just dip to such slow speeds, I was checking and confirming the storage space but I still have 30tb to burn even though i should only have maybe 15tb left to touch. But i do want to figure this out as I have 2 16tb I want to drop in there. Not sure if the 16tb will have to become paritys or not because they will be the biggest size. I will also still be able to swap the two parity drives to replace two 8tbs not a pro still a newb at these things and learning. Thanks again! retroshare-plex-diagnostics-20220702-1421.zip

Hello, Its been quite some time since i posted and I thank the previous moderators for the help of the old case Seems that the Issue has come back without me changing any cables or anything, Parity disk are taking almost a whole 2 months to go through the scan and finish the parity checks. I want to replace two drives but this parity check prior to that is taking quite some time, I also wish to swap out the motherboard and change the cpu to see if that will improve things. I also noticed that there has been a huge change to my speed of transferring files, and it would sometimes just completely shut my plex out or freeze. Not sure whats going on. Also the disk that say error are working fine and the ones that are saying healthy are having issues Disk 2 and 10 are definitely having issues and I am planning on changing them soon. I want to make sure before swapping disk I have to complete the parity check? and then switch the disk? So pretty much 3 questions 1. Parity is taking close to 90 days to finish 2. Nothing was changed from the last time just updated here and there via docker so why is the parity taking long 3. How to properly change drives and what methods should i take? Also recommendations if i were to change the motherboard,cpu and drives would it be a huge problem? I
