June 25, 20215 yr Hi, I've had a disk 5 generate errors and go into emulated mode. I just removed an older disk a few weeks ago which was generating errors and spread the data across the existing drives. Is this drive looking like a dud now? Not a great time to be buying drives! ridcully-diagnostics-20210625-0913.zip
June 25, 20215 yr Community Expert Disk dropped offline, SMART looks fine, most likely a connection/power issue.
June 25, 20215 yr Author Thank you. Running the "Check Filesystem Status" function and following the steps to get it back online.

Is the correct method from here now to do a rebuild of the drive back onto itself? Last time this happened to me (years ago) I'm sure I just re-enabled the drive but this doesn't seem to be an option.

June 25, 20215 yr Community Expert I would also recommend replacing/swapping cables with another disk before rebuilding to rule that out if it happens again to the same disk.
