Flash drive dying?

Featured Replies

went to pull something from my array and discovered my shares are missing....it appears my flash drive has died or had some sort of problem? UnRAID reports its offline.

The flash drive is only a few years old. Its a sandisk Cruzer Fit 16GB. I don't believe the USB drive model is the problem, I've used this same model for nearly a decade between my two systems and this is the first time I've ever had an issue. I do use a startech internal USB adapter that I've had for quite some time (since unraid 4.7 lol).

EDIT: Shut down system, Windows can see the drive and all of its contents. Copying the flash contents to a folder on my PC as a backup went smoothly, no files threw errrors. Windows claims it found issues on the drive but when I ran the repair it reported no issues...


I moved the starttech usb adapter to another header on the board and the system came back up just fine, albeit running a parity check.

 

Does this look more like a flash problem or a header/adapter problem?

Make sure you are using a USB 2.0 port.

Yeah sorry should have been clear, its an internal USB 2.0 header and USB 2.0 flash drive.

I used a brand new flash drive with unraid for 5 years before I ran into issues.  One thing that prompted me to replace the flash drive was when the server rebooted once a week, there were errors in the log accessing the flash drive or the os would be in trial mode because it could not find the license key.  After researching the issue I decided to replace the flash drive and do the whole transfer license to the new flash drive.  That solved the problems I was having.  If you have the issues I mentioned above, it could be indicative that your flash drive is failing or is bad now.

zero issues other than human error and your typical disk problems.

 

This is the first flash related issue or error I believe I've ever had in my entire time using UnRAID. I buy quality flash drives and limit writes to them to avoid this exact type of situation.

 

EDIT: Well this is not entirely true, I had a roof leak in my rental house 3 years ago that got into my server and blew my mobo and flash. This is that replacement flash drive so its only about ~3 years old.

If it's already using a USB 2.0 port the flash drive could be failing, try a different USB controller if available, if there's isn't one or it's the same replace the flash drive.

Alright, was hoping something more conclusive would be in the log. I'll move it to the back ports outside of the case if i have problems with the other internal header. if it still drops out I'll buy a new flash.
