Stitch0815 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Hi everyone, I hope this is the right Forum for this question since I am still pretty new to unraid and the whole server space. I have had several realocated sectros over the last couple of days. Google suggested this is a pretty bad sign so I tried to run a SMART selftest which ended in the "Inappropriate ioctl for device" Error. The drive now reports 100 reallocated sectors. What does this mean and is there a way around it or should I just toss the drive since it is still in warranty? I have two new ST2000DM008-2UB102 one of which is running as a drive and one as a parity drive. Thank you for your help Rest of the server: MB: FUJITSU D2990-A2, Version S26361-D2990-A2 CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-2600 RAM: 16 gig DDR3 Expansion: TP-LINK TG-3468 Gigabit PCI Express Network Adapter ST2000DM008-2UB102_WFL5DQ8X-20220208-0139.txt xfs_repari status.txt Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 There are also pending sectors, so yes, it should be replaced. Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Reallocate sectors are never a good sign and on a newish drive I would expect the number to be 0 Although technically not fatal if the number remains stable the number on that drive wound make me think that failure is imminent and I would get it replaced.
