I am the original owner of this 2015 6tb WD Red. Used exclusively in average used Plex system on Unraid. Occasionally I will have the drive stop working, emulated, device not available and such. I usually can get it working but often requiring re-format and than rebuild. Occassionally I see write errors but they seem to clear on there own. I can only do the Short Smart Test within Unraid. Not sure if it times out due to errors or if not supported?? Also not completely sure if these are due to the HBA, PCI errors. Mostly I am just trying to understand/learn more about the process. 2015 drive is old and have a new one on the way.
