housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I've been upgrading my server with some new disks. One even failed so I'm replacing that now. But instead of the normal 120-150 MBs I get when it starts I'm getting 1-10MBs. I have stopped Docker and the VM manager. I rebooted and that didn't fix anything either. Attached is my diagnostics. blue-diagnostics-20220405-1114.zip Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Check/replace both cables on parity and try again. Quote Link to comment
housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 I replugged in the cables and even swamped some but no change. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Then parity could be failing, but doesn't look like it is, try a different SATA port or swap with another disk and post new diags. Quote Link to comment
housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Okay, I'll try that next. I was going to run hdparm -tT /dev hdparm -tT /dev on each disk to see if one is reading slowly as well. Quote Link to comment
housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 All the disks came back with strong cache and regular read speeds from hdparm. Here is the updated diags. blue-diagnostics-20220405-1215.zip Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 It's still in the same port. 20 minutes ago, JorgeB said: try a different SATA port or swap with another disk and post new diags. Quote Link to comment
housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Which one is in the same port. I changed the new disks port. Many of the drives are in an HBA with a SAS to Sata so I can't really change many ports. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Parity is the one having issues, swap ports with another disk, there are 7 other disks using the same controller. Quote Link to comment
housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 There's two parity disks. Do I need to swap both? Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Problem is just with Parity1 Quote Link to comment
housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 I think that fixed it. I'm getting a range of speeds from 25MBs to 160MBs. Diags attached. So is the port on the mobo bad then? blue-diagnostics-20220405-1258.zip Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 There are still issues, possibly less then before but they are still there, and they fallowed the disk, so it's not the port, still looks like a cable problem to me, power or SATA, but if you really swapped them it could be the disk.

housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Okay, I can look into replacing the disk. I'm getting a much more consistent 145MBs now. Are some cables recommended over others? Quote Link to comment
housewrecker Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Also, thanks for all the help! Quote Link to comment
