Diagnostics will show.
Which file in the diagnostics zip file has this info? I'm not finding it.

A properly precleared drive that hasn't had any bits changed is universal to any Unraid install.
Thank you.
-
My new server is much more robust, so it will preclear divers faster yes?
So can I add precleared drives to any Unraid server, or is it linked to the one that precleared them?

You can post new diags if it fails again.
Yeah its dead. Finally failed hours into Extended Smart Test.

You can manually copy what you can, any read errors you will need to skip those files, or use ddrescue.
Yeah the drive is toast after all. Failed hours into the Extended Smart Test.

If you didn't reboot yet post the diagnostics.
I have not altered the removed drive... any value to reinstalling, letting it run and if it still come up the same, capturing diagnostics then?
For now I'm going to let the long smart test run but LMK with regard to the above idea.

As title says.
Pulled the offending disk and put it in my main computer, and passes short smart test. This failed at 10% on the Unraid server.
Running extended smart test now (24 hours to go).
FWIW, Hard Disk Sentinel 6.10 PRO also says drive is 100% on Performance and Health.
What would cause this? Could a bad cable from the LSI-9300-16i cause this? -

Confirms that the disk needs replacing.
What's the best strategy for copying that data over to another disk?
-
Ran the extended test, and it stopped at 10% with this: "Completed: read failure".
Its a recertified drive with a 5 year warranty, so I can get it replaced - but is there a way to recoevr the daya ? Should I copy to another drive(s) on the array?
Sadly its a 16GB, with 11-12 TB filled, so I'd need to split it if I copy it over or wait until a replacement arrives.

As title said, I built a New Server - transferred all media (30TB) - added parity disk and ran initial parity set up - NOW one array disk showing read failure.
Please look at my diagnostics file attached - I'd appreciate some educated input. Thank you.

Oddly, it works for my main server, but not my backup server. Both Unraid and Connect are the latest versions.

Please! Yes! +1

Thanks - would you convert to H.265 before or after the move?
-
Okay... so what is the best strategy to relocate just my media files to my new Unraid server. I will stipulate in advance:
I am patient, and this doesn't have to happen fast IF using a slower transfer method is better/safer
I would like to convert all videos to h.265 to reduce the files sizes should I do this before or after transfer?)
I have a fair amount of Apple content so I assume I would have to account for that when converting to H.265
I have 32TB (8TBx4 of available storage now (plus a single 8TB parity drive), and I plan to preclear and add the drives from the Synology afterwards (10TBx5 plus 8TBx4, all IronWolf NAS). Its barebones, and other than some cache pools, I don't have anything I couldn't wipe and start over.
Server: AMD 5600x CPU, 32GB DDR4, Dual M.2 dives for cache (plus drives specified above)
Synology: only 1GS transfer rate on Synology (DS 916+ with 8GB RAM, plus DX 503 expansion chassis)
What would you recommend?

If the inside is much warmer, you need better ventilation.
Mainly I'm think proximity of the internal USB port to the LSI-9300-16i. I'm working on mitigating its heat.

Super small = heat buildup = dead drives
Go with a large form factor with lots of metal shell, and put it inside the case where it can't get disturbed.
No issue with heat inside the case vs outside?

Been reading up on SMR drives (I will have 4x SMR 8TB Seagate drives in addition to the rest being Iron Wolf drives). I have a ton of movies / TV show sand music I will transfer from my soon to be retired Synology.
It makes sense to me to pool those SMR drives for media storage specifically (since the task will be WORM). Anyone have a differing opinion? If so, what would you do differently?

It would depend on the WC system you use, but I would consider that a WC system has more components thus more single points of failure than a simple fan and that it makes it reliable as a whole.
One fan can fail let's say it's 90% reliable on a given period of time.
If you have one fan on your WC, at least two tubes, 4 connection points, one pump, one rad (I will not consider a reservoir that might be integrated with another component, same thing for the waterblock). I'll be optimistic and say that all of them have a 95% reliability on the same period of time. I am pretty sure that's overall not as reliable as a single fan.
And if it fails, you then have no cooling at all on the chip rather that less cooling with the base heatsink + a fan somewhere (attached to it or on the case).
From my point of view, it's not something that I would try on a server that can run 24/7.
Especially considering the higher cost, the lack of performance increase and that there is probably no sensor on the board that you can easy read and receive and alert from.
Thanks - appreciate your thought process.

....less reliable.
This caught my eye - why do you think it would be less reliable? Thanks in advance.

All good points, and it’s admittedly more to see what can be done.

Hello everyone. I am looking for the above card and I am looking for one that is broken and not working. Why? Because I plan to takeoff the heat sink and figure out if there’s a practical way to use water cooling.
If you have an old card, it’s not in working order I would like to acquire it or I will happily pay for shipping if you donate it to the cause of science!
I’ve seen the bolt on fan options and while they seem effective, I feel compelled to look for a better solution. If you can help me out, please contact me.

If you have please LMK what you used and how you did it.
