Unraid Version: 5.0-rc8a
Hi all,
I have been trying to fix my server for some weeks intermittently and now feeling a bit lost. I have done a lot of searching and head scratching but now would really appreciate some support!
My array is currently four drives including parity. Recently disk 2 (a 2tb fairly new WD Red) became disabled (red icon) showing DISK_DSBL. Tried a rebuild but that failed, not having much time to investigate or dig further I plumped for ordering a new WD Green 2tb to replace and do a simple rebuild.
Once installed in the Red's palce, the rebuild was happily working away for 3 days on the WD Green until that failed too and now also displays DISK_DSBL and has left me scratching my head.
Logic would suggest to me this is not a coincidence, happening to both WD drives.
On attempting a 2nd rebuild on the Green today...
- I moved the hard drive further up the cage away from another drive, worrying about heat
- Replaced the SATA cable with new one, as suggested elsewhere
- Changed the power connector for another but on the same trunk (the only spare) of the Corsair PSU (which I assume would not make much difference if there is an issue with the PSU).
- Observed that drive 2 is on a dual SATA controller card along with another drive but not witnessing any errors with that drive.
The 2nd rebuild on the WD Green lasted less than an hour this time and failed again.
I would really appreciate if anyone could lend a hand and help figure this out. My hope is that both the Red and Green drives may be salvageable, and could expand my array, or at least save me forking out for a third drive?
I attach the most recent syslog and smart report on the Green WD below.
Many thanks,
Jasper
