I've encountered an issue on my hard drive where it produces errors like this on the disk log:
Mar 21 16:42:04 TemposRAID kernel: ata1.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x30000 SErr 0x4090000 action 0xe frozen

Mar 21 16:42:04 TemposRAID kernel: ata1: hard resetting link
This accompanies with a sound coming from the hard drive itself, as if it's skipping inside.
At first, I thought it was because of my Sata expansion card but I've eliminated that from the equation.
I also thought it was the sata cable / port from the motherboard to the drive, but simply switching it didn't change anything.
I was in the middle of moving all my files off there a new thing appear on the Array Devices list: errors... About 36. So, I thought turning off "Turbo Write" to test if it was that. No.
After an extended test on the drive itself, S.M.A.R.T. came back with nothing. Before that, Check Filesystem showed nothing.
Before I go through the exhausting method of testing this new Seagate IronWolf with their software (perhaps sending in a warranty claim), are there any other steps that I need to take?
If not, then should I not touch my files (or move them off) and instead replace, then allow the parity to build them back?
Thank you for your time
