f451 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hi, after running out of space in my Server, i decide to buy a External Drive Case with Port Multiplier connection ( http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product/product06.php?pr_index=331&cl_index=12&sc_index=42&ss_index=115) Unraid recognize the two HDs i inserted (one WD, one Samsung) and add them to my Raid...that is the good thing. But i noticed that the output from Smartcrl for the WD was different then before. This is the output if the WD HD connected to an internal controller card: === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Device Model: WDC WD10EADS-65L5B1 Serial Number: WD-WCAU499250xx Firmware Version: 01.01A01 User Capacity: 1,000,204,886,016 bytes Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall] ATA Version is: 8 ATA Standard is: Exact ATA specification draft version not indicated Local Time is: Mon Feb 28 16:09:28 2011 CET SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.

Also the second disk, SAMSUNG drive, send the right smartcrl output. (I test this also with a second WD drive -> same behavior) Need some advice, is this is a problem? Can i use the disk? Known issue? Seen this before? Thanks Mirko Quote Link to comment
bubbaQ Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 PMs are basically SATA-to-SATA bridges and they are NOT all created equal. Hust like USB-to-SATA and USB-to-IDE bridges, some do a great job at SMART commands and hdparm IOCTLs, and others fall flat on their face. Look at all the options in smartclt for the -d flag.

f451 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Hi bubbaQ, i used unmenue. So the output for both comes from smartctl -a -d ata /dev/sdh Just wondering that the output for the Samsung HD looks ok. Is this more a incompatibility between WD Harddisk and the PM, or an software issue? (I asked that also Lian Li, but still no answer) And the most important question......has that an impact on my Data? hdparm for this HD /dev/sdh: ATA device, with non-removable media Model Number: WDC WD10EADS-65L5B1 Serial Number: WD-WCAU499250xx Firmware Revision: 0955 Standards: Supported: 7 6 5 4 Likely used: 7 Configuration: Logical max current cylinders 16383 16383 heads 16 16 sectors/track 63 63 -- CHS current addressable sectors: 16514064 LBA user addressable sectors: 268435455 LBA48 user addressable sectors: 1953525168 device size with M = 1024*1024: 953869 MBytes device size with M = 1000*1000: 1000204 MBytes (1000 GB) Capabilities: LBA, IORDY(can be disabled) Standby timer values: spec'd by Vendor, no device specific minimum R/W multiple sector transfer: Max = 1 Current = 1 Advanced power management level: disabled DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 udma4 *udma5 udma6 Cycle time: min=120ns recommended=120ns PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4 Cycle time: no flow control=240ns IORDY flow control=120ns Commands/features: Enabled Supported: * SMART feature set Security Mode feature set * Power Management feature set Write cache Look-ahead * Host Protected Area feature set * WRITE_BUFFER command * READ_BUFFER command * NOP cmd Advanced Power Management feature set SET_MAX security extension * 48-bit Address feature set * Mandatory FLUSH_CACHE * FLUSH_CACHE_EXT * WRITE_{DMA|MULTIPLE}_FUA_EXT * SATA-I signaling speed (1.5Gb/s) * SATA-II signaling speed (3.0Gb/s) * Software settings preservation Security: supported not enabled not locked frozen not expired: security count not supported: enhanced erase 508min for SECURITY ERASE UNIT.

bubbaQ Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Don't use the "-d ata " and you may get better results. Or try "-d scsi ". Quote Link to comment
f451 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 without -d ata i receive the same output, with -d scsi i only got a few lines with "Device does not support SMART" At the moment the only worse thing is that unraid alway display 44C°.... I'm not sure if i should send the case back or keep it. Thanks for your time! Greetings from Germany Mirko Quote Link to comment
SSD Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 With the BR10i controller, you need to use the "-A" parameter, instead of "-d ata". Try that. Quote Link to comment
