Removed powertop but it happened again. Now I think is a cable problem or a faulty HDD. I'll try change the data cable first

I performed a server restart after the first occurrence, which should have reset all the tuning done by PowerTop (at least, that is my understanding). However, it happened a second time. Now, I've switched all tuneables in PowerTop to 'BAD' to see how it will go in the next few days. In the meantime, I've turned off the powerdown feature to run a full SMART test

Hello, I hope this message finds you well. I have just built my first DIY NAS: ASROCK MORTAR 650M Intel Core i3 12100 Cache: 1TB HDD salvaged from an old laptop Array: Two 8TB Seagate HDDs (one Barracuda as parity and one Ironwolf as disk 1) To optimize power consumption, I installed Powertop and ran the "--autotune" command. A few hours after running it, I encountered an error on disk 1, resulting in a "Device disable." I stopped the server, changed the SATA port, initiated a rebuild on itself, and resolved the issue. However, after another 24 hours, the same issue occurred. The disk was in a spin-down state, and upon waking it to copy heavy files, it immediately went into "Device disabled." This time, before restarting and changing the SATA port, I captured system logs. Could this be related to Powertop autotune? To rollback Powertop changes, is it sufficient to set everything in "tuneables" to "BAD"? After the first error, since I had to restart the server, all Powertop autotune changes should have been rolled back, yet the issue persisted. Could it be a problem with the disk or cable? I appreciate any insights or suggestions to resolve this issue. Thanks!
