August 15, 20214 yr Just added a 8tb hdd to my 5 disk stash, the disk was all good when in disclosure. after two days the disk appeared disable, so I did a parity check on it. 54,250 Errors! but theres little to nothing data on the disk yet. Checked the SMART test and all passed. Should I be worried? Anything I need to do? unraid-diagnostics-20210815-1649.zip
August 16, 20214 yr Community Expert Looks more like a connection/power issue, replace/swap both cables and try again.

A bit confused by this as any disabled disk would not take part in a parity check. Maybe you meant something else? 8 hours ago, dotSlash said: 54,250 Errors! but theres little to nothing data on the disk yet. The amount of data on a disk is irrelevant to a parity check as its is working at the raw sector level. Even a disk that has no data will have a lot of non-zero sectors due to the fact that the disk was formatted to create the control structures for an empty file system.

August 16, 20214 yr Author Quote after two days the disk appeared disable, so I did a parity check on it. I mean the server was running fine for about 2 days before I discovered the new added disk was disable. Here is the errors.
August 16, 20214 yr Community Expert All disks mount so that is good. 16 hours ago, JorgeB said: Looks more like a connection/power issue, replace/swap both cables and try again.

August 19, 20214 yr Community Expert Connection problems with ata3. Unfortunately all syslogs in diagnostics filled up with those message so nothing from earlier to see which disk that is talking about.
