Marceneiro Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Recently my unRAID server started showing parity errors, so I replaced a drive that had some smart errors. I thought this would fix it, and it did show 0 errors after install, but the parity errors are back. I see a new drive has SMART issues - Reallocated sector count of 8. That number isn't increasing, at least since I noticed it, and from what I have read, this is a normal thing for modern drives? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running unRAID 6.8.3 Plugins: Community Apps Fix Common Problems Unassigned Devices, Plus User Scripts And a Plex docker. Thank you! ovi-diagnostics-20210210-0827.zip Quote Link to comment

Marceneiro Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 Thanks, made it through 1 pass with no errors. I'll let it run overnight. Quote Link to comment
Marceneiro Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 68 hours and 31 passes later, still 0 errors on the memory, so that seems to be ok. Does anyone have any idea why I keep getting parity errors? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 If it's not RAM it can be a controller or even a hard drive, unfortunately no easy way to test except rule out one thing at a time. Quote Link to comment
