Hi All,

 

New to Unraid (Version: 6.9.0-rc2), my server was running perfectly for 40ish days, then during a parity check a red X appeared next to disk 1. Being a noob, I freaked out and rebooted the server and tried to attach the disk again with no luck. I added a spare new drive and tried to attach and rebuild, but that didnt work either. As I dont really know what is wrong, it's probably best to ask here before I do some real damage.

 

As of right now I have no idea how to fix this, or add a drive to replace the drive that was having errors. It's a brand new drive so not even sure if it's actually failing.

 

SDG is the disk that was giving the errors. The contents of the drive is just media, but I would prefer not to lose it

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated! If anything else needs to be uploaded please let me know!

 

Thanks!

 

Justin

Disk1 doesn't look too good. Were you planning to use that disk you posted SMART as its replacement?

The disk that looks bad and was assigned as disk1 (disabled) is sdh according to those diagnostics.

 

Were you trying to replace disk1 (sdh) with sdg?

I was planning on getting a replacement as it's only a month or so old. I plugged in a brand new drive, 12TB as well. When i booted up my server and tried adding the new drive to disk 1, unraid was giving me read errors as well. So not sure whats going on

You can't add a disk while you have another disk that needs to be rebuilt. You should replace disk1 with that new drive. Do you know how to proceed?

I tried to add the new disk to disk 1, then started the array. It didnt work, so maybe I am doing something wrong. Can you please provide some direction? Thanks

Do I need to disconnect the drive that isnt working from the server?

Stop array.

Assign new drive as disk1.

Start array to begin rebuild.

Since the new disk is already connected and you don't need the connection for that bad drive then no need to disconnect it.

Ah derp. I was adding the wrong drive (old). Sorry and Thank YOU!
