Brand New Drive Reporting Error


Recommended Posts

I have just rebuilt my array after I had a drive crater.  I used the opportunity to somewhat start from scratch as I had some issues that I wanted to clear up.  I noticed this morning the drive (sdb) that I put in there is reporting a single read error.  It is a "new" drive in that this was a warranty replacement.  I am guessing that it is probably a refurb, but I don't know.

 

Any thoughts on what I should do with this?  I don't have a spare drive on hand, so I'd need to get another one ordered if it is critical.

 

Let me know your thoughts...

Something unusual happened on this machine.  It seemed to have gotten stuck at 90% so after 48 hours, I cancelled the test and ran

smartctl -t select,0-max /dev/sdb

 instead.  While that was running, I had a power blip (and UPS failure) and the machine rebooted.

 

After reboot, the drives are reporting no errors.  I'm not sure what to do at this point other than keep an eye on it.  I have ordered a spare drive just in case.
