October 27, 20214 yr Hi - I finally got around to adding a second parity drive for the first time over the weekend. Parity-sync completed successfully and I didn't have any issues. I took a look at the server this morning and noticed that there is that happy red X next to my brand new parity drive. Oddly, I can still run SMART tests which suggest that it's smart report is kosher. I then stopped the array and reseated my cables, but that did not help. More searching through the forum suggested that there might be an issue with my brand new Ironwolf 8TB drive in this post, however the applied fix and subsequent reboot haven't fixed the issue. The drive is connected to my X8DTL-F through an LSI HBA which then connects to an HP SAS expander and then into the drive. Any direction towards a fix would be amazing. Thank you all! manky-dreadful-diagnostics-20211027-1533.zip
October 28, 20214 yr Community Expert After a disk gets disable only a rebuild will fix it, if you thing the problem is solved and the disk is OK resync parity. https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Storage_Management#Rebuilding_a_drive_onto_itself
October 28, 20214 yr Author Ahh, I didn't know that. Thank you for the direction! Parity-sync is going and I'll update if any issues arise.
