Thank you! These were the steps I originally took to try to run the Parity-Sync, but I guess the power issue caused other issues to surface. Parity-Sync is now running for both drives. Appreciate everyone's help! Fingers crossed it finishes without errors.

I've cancelled the Parity-Sync and stopped the array. Parity 1 is still showing a red X (attached). How do I enable the Parity 1 drive?

Thanks, I'm not great at debugging hardware issues, but I think I may have resolved it. My previous PSU (Corsair CX550) only had one SATA power cable, so I daisy chained SATA extenders together (don't laugh at me haha): This time, the array started on boot without any issues and there are zero errors on the drives so far. Parity-Sync is currently in progress for Parity 2, however Parity 1 is still showing Parity device disabled. Should I let that continue? Additional questions: Is daisy chaining SATA extenders advised against? Based on my current setup from this post, how much power would I need for my system?

I tried connecting the hard drives to a different PSU and now they have started with zero errors, but the array took a while to start up, whereas before it would start up at boot time rather quickly. I do have a cloud backup, so this isn't the end of the world, just tedious as I try to resolve the issue. Here is what my array looks like now: I still see a lot of warnings in the logs: Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: cmd 60/00:98:78:bd:00/04:00:00:00:00/40 tag 19 ncq dma 524288 in Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: res 40/00:00:78:cb:00/00:00:00:00:00/40 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: status: { DRDY } Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: cmd 60/00:a8:78:cb:00/04:00:00:00:00/40 tag 21 ncq dma 524288 in Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: res 40/00:00:78:cb:00/00:00:00:00:00/40 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: status: { DRDY } Oct 13 00:35:49 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link Oct 13 00:35:50 raphnas kernel: ata6: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) Oct 13 00:35:55 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link Oct 13 00:35:55 raphnas kernel: ata6: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) Oct 13 00:35:57 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link Oct 13 00:36:03 raphnas kernel: ata6: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0) Oct 13 00:36:07 raphnas kernel: ata6: COMRESET failed (errno=-16) Oct 13 00:36:07 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link Full logs attached. Should I let the parity run at this point? Edit #1: I spoke too soon. There are errors on disks 7 and 10 now. Disk 7 has its own SATA cable connected directly to the motherboard, while disk 10 is connected to an HBA. Edit #2: Disks 4 and 6 have joined the party. raphnas-diagnostics-20231013-0113.zip

Hey all, I recently had one of my parity drives showing Parity device disabled. To try to resolve this issue, I did these steps: Ran a parity check with Write corrections to parity checked. This completed successfully, but the parity drive was still disabled. Stopped the array, selected no device on the failed parity drive slot, restarted the array, stopped the array again, select the parity drive, restarted the array. After doing that, both parity drives were down and disk 7 showed Device contents emulated as well as Unsupported or no file system. Tried to debug this a bit with a helpful user on the forum, but unfortunately wasn't able to fix the issue. The additional steps taken during debugging were: Tools > New Config > Select to preserve all arrays and pools > Apply Started the array and formatted disk 7 Clicked the red X on the two parity drives under unassigned devices to clear the drives, then formatted both drives. Stopped the array, assigned the two parity drives, and restarted the array I also reorganized drives and cables, to confirm that disk 7 is consistently failing and that it is not an issue with the cables or HBA. I connected a SATA cable from disk 7 directly to the motherboard instead of connecting it to the HBA. Starting the array now seems very slow: Oct 12 00:35:50 raphnas root: realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0 Oct 12 00:35:50 raphnas emhttpd: mounting /mnt/disk9 Oct 12 00:35:50 raphnas emhttpd: shcmd (127): mkdir -p /mnt/disk9 Oct 12 00:35:50 raphnas emhttpd: shcmd (128): mount -t xfs -o noatime,nouuid /dev/md9p1 /mnt/disk9 Oct 12 00:35:50 raphnas kernel: XFS (md9p1): Mounting V5 Filesystem Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: exception Emask 0x50 SAct 0x200000 SErr 0x4890800 action 0xe frozen Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: irq_stat 0x0c400040, interface fatal error, connection status changed Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: ata6: SError: { HostInt PHYRdyChg 10B8B LinkSeq DevExch } Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: cmd 60/00:a8:38:0d:01/01:00:80:04:00/40 tag 21 ncq dma 131072 in Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: res 40/00:00:38:0d:01/00:00:80:04:00/40 Emask 0x50 (ATA bus error) Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: ata6.00: status: { DRDY } Oct 12 00:35:51 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link Oct 12 00:35:52 raphnas kernel: ata6: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 380) Oct 12 00:35:58 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link Oct 12 00:35:58 raphnas kernel: ata6: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 380) Oct 12 00:35:58 raphnas kernel: ata6: limiting SATA link speed to <unknown> Oct 12 00:35:59 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link Oct 12 00:36:04 raphnas kernel: ata6: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0) Oct 12 00:36:09 raphnas kernel: ata6: COMRESET failed (errno=-16) Oct 12 00:36:09 raphnas kernel: ata6: hard resetting link As it currently stands, when the array finally starts up, there are errors on disks 4 and 7.
