Superdean56 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) Please see below, newer comments! I now have over 200,000 errors! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello Everyone, I run my parity backup on the first of every month, last month I had 80 errors. I re-ran the backup and it finished with zero errors. Now today, my parity backup ran and completed and I now have 1344 errors. I ran SMART on all disks and they all seem perfectly fine, no issues What does this mean? Thank you in advance trinity-diagnostics-20211201-2028.zip Edited January 2, 2022 by Superdean56 Updated Issues Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Start by running memtest. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 If no errors are found during memtest run a couple o consecutive parity checks and post new diags, all without rebooting. Quote Link to comment

Superdean56 Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 So one month later, I re-ran my sync with the "fix errors" unchecked. It is currently syncing and I have over 300,000 errors detected so far. I did an extended SMART test on every disk I have, and all come back with zero errors. Can someone please explain this to me? trinity-diagnostics-20220101-1249.zip Quote Link to comment

Continual disconnects on the parity drive. Reseat the cabling. Also be aware that since the parity drive is a WD that if you're using a locking Sata Cable, it makes terrible connection unless the cable also has the internal "bump" that non-locking cables have (and many locking cables do not have them). Reseat the cabling (both ends) to the drive without disturbing any of the other cables. Quote Link to comment
Superdean56 Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 Thank you for responding! funny thing is, last month I changed the cable to the parity drive. But you are right I do have a WD drive and the locking cables connected to it so should I put a cable that does not have a locking clip? Just on the parity? Or all of them? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 WD changed their shroud on the drives a number of years ago with the net result that only sata cables which are actually made to spec will work properly. (And many / most of the locking cables are not to spec, whereas every non-locking cable is made to spec). You're looking for a little internal "bump" inside the connector. All non-locking have them and many / most locking do not Quote Link to comment
Superdean56 Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 I see.. i changed a locking cable…with a locking cable looks like I will be ordering a new set of sata cables today thank you! I will report back once I install new cables and run a parity backup Quote Link to comment
Superdean56 Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 So I found some SATA cables without the locking clips. I changed them. I even swapped the parity's SATA port with another HDD port on the motherboard I re-ran the parity check and 2 hours in I already had over 120,000 errors detected Someone, please help trinity-diagnostics-20220101-1920.zip Quote Link to comment
