mmhnto Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Configuration: Supermicro SSG-6047R UnRAID 6.9.2 Single Parity 10 TB Mix of 10 TB, 6 TB, and 4 TB drives in array Yesterday UnRAID marked an older 4TB drive in my array as failed. I did not have a precleared replacement ready so I went to Microcenter and bought a new Seagate IronWolf 10 TB as a replacement. Normally I always run preclear on a new disk before adding it to the array, but since the 4 TB had already failed, I figured the easiest thing was just to replace it in the array and run a resync. Unfortunately, about 10% into the resync, the new 10 TB drive has now failed. It was in a different hardware slot than the 4 TB failed drive, so I don't suspect a server hardware issue. My concern is that the failed replacement drive is showing as emulated and the file system appears to be intact, however UnRAID is showing the capacity as 10 TB instead of the expected original 4 TB. If I replace this drive with another new 10 TB (which I will preclear in advance), will the resync cause problems with data on the other drives once the resync moves past the original 4 TB since the first 10 TB resync failed. Diagnostics are attached. The failed 4TB drive is: HGST_HDS724040ALE640_PK2331PAJ3W0AT The new failed 10 TB is: ST10000VN0008-2PJ103_ZLW2ASPE Any advice on next steps would be much appreciated.
