Copy speed drop (180 -> 70 MiB/s) after single errno 5, persists through restart and reboot
The destination of the copy is an array made up of the 16TB and a 10TB. It's an interesting point. I noticed when the copy started that the writes were going to the 16TB disk and now they're going to the 10TB disk so it's possible that 10TB is significantly slower and that's what's caused the change. Perhaps that single errno 5 is a red herring and unrelated to the speed change. (Just as background, I started the array with the empty 16TB, then I copied the contents of the 10TB into the array, formatted the 10TB and added it to the array. Now I'm doing the same thing with the 8TB - coping the files off it so that I can add it to the array although obviously there are now concerns about its health.)

I plan to run an extended SMART test once I've copied the data off the drive. In the meantime, I'd like that copy to happen as quickly as possible, thus my question.

Hi all, Unraid 7.3.2 - diagnostics.zip attached I've just started running Unraid on a new TerraMaster F4-425. I'm in the middle of a large read-only copy from an 8TB Seagate mounted via Unassigned Devices into the array, using binhex-krusader (Docker container). What went wrong: the copy ran smoothly up to about 60% at roughly 180 MiB/s overnight (I think at 2am?), the transfer paused waiting for user input on an errno 5 (I/O error) for a single file the next morning I dimissed the prompt and the copy resumed — but speed has been stuck at 70-80 MiB/s ever since Troubleshooting so far: stopped and restarted the Krusader copy job rebooted the Unraid server reseated all drives in the bays pulled SMART attributes for the source Seagate via the Unraid web GUI: Reallocated_Sector_Ct: 0 Current_Pending_Sector: 48 Offline_Uncorrectable: 48 Reported_Uncorrect: 44 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count: 0 Power_On_Hours: ~47,652 (~5.4 years) Given UDMA CRC errors are at 0, I don't think this is a cabling/connection issue. The pending/uncorrectable sector counts (48) line up suspiciously with the errno 5 event, and I suspect the drive may be spending extra time internally retrying reads on marginal sectors, but I'm not certain this explains a sustained 2x+ slowdown across what should be mostly healthy sectors. Questions: Does anyone have any idea what caused this and how to fix it? Does a handful of pending sectors on a source drive typically cause this kind of sustained, drive-wide slowdown rather than just a local slowdown when reading the specific affected files? Is there a way to confirm (via Unraid GUI or terminal) whether the drive has silently dropped to a lower SATA link speed after the error, and if so, how to force it back to full speed? Thanks! rosa-diagnostics-20260717-0841.zip
