Vivent's post in new disk cant go through extended smart was marked as the answerSorry for double post, but I think it's important. I kind of found the real issue. It was (is) power. I found out that if I plug 3 drives on the same cable, the last one (the one with problems) is not always detected, and if it is, its behaviour is strange (no temp, showing as 4GB instead of 4TB, or spitting read erros). So I added another cable, and it worked. I discovered this just now, because parity drive arrived so I needed to find a new cable.
Now I'm not sure if cable is the problem (broken?), or is it that I shouldn't connect 3HDDs (1 is 2,5) to the same cable. But if it's the second one, then Silentium PC shouldn't add cables that allowed to do that...
I don't wanna mangle with those drives too much, so I won't test it, but if someone has similar problem, you can try another/second cable
