I'm having the same drive flake out in the middle of the night, once every couple months. Yesterday I reseated the SATA cabling on drive and motherboard, and it died again in the night. Usually I just reboot and rebuild from parity since it's a newer drive. Can someone take a peek at the attached logs and give me any indication on the cause/solution? TIA

This means the drive is dropping offline, replace or swap cables, both SATA and power, or connect the SSD to a different controller.

Thanks, that was the 2nd error that happened last night - a first ever SSD drive dropping off. A reboot brought it right back up.

 

I'm running an extended SMART test on the spinning drive I originally posted about. That'll take a full day.
