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

There are also pending sectors, so yes, it should be replaced.

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.

Aw man that sucks
Thank  you for your help
I have contacted the vendor.
