Hi, 

I found a few Thread with this Problem, but I couldn't figgure out why this happend to me. 

 

 

The Disk seem to be fine, also works ok in Windows, but I can't get it to work in Unraid again. I stopped the Array, the Disk is still there and I can pick it, but if I start the Array the Device is disabled again. Is there a Log somewhere why the Device got disabled in the first place? 

Disk is still connected to the System, still can use the SMART. Logs attached below. Thanks

Same problem, changed SATA cable and port but the issue persist (extended SMART attached)

After doing a backup could I try the rebuilding?

Attach Diagnostics to your NEXT post in this thread 

Here, sorry

Diags are after rebooting so we can't see what happened, but SMART looks OK so if the emulated disk is mounting and contents look correct you can rebuild.

@Pozzo

Start the array and post new diagnostics then we can see if the emulated disk is mounting, and if it is, you can check its contents yourself.

My other server is backing up the data stored in the disabled disk (content is emulated)

As soon as the backup finish, i will start the rebuild.

Data are safe but how this happened, any idea?

I turn on the server abuot once a week for 3 days, then I turn if off, is it possible that powering on/off could create this situation?

Disks spin-down after 15 minutes (the server doesn't have read/write load, so the disks stay off for hours before spin-up), possible issue?

 

Thanks for the help

SMART for disabled disk3 looks good and it recently passed extended SMART test. Emulated disk3 is mounted only showing 75G of data with contents from 3 user shares.

 

Should be OK to rebuild to the same disk.

Since you mention backing up this one disk, I have to ask. Do you have backups of anything important and irreplaceable?

If all connections are good and power is good it shouldn't matter.

All the important data are also saved in other disks offline

 

Now that im trying to rebuild the array I cant reassign the disabled disk (step 6 of the guide)

https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Storage_Management#Rebuilding_a_drive_onto_itself

 

When I assign the disk, it is in the selectable disk (the only) but when I click on it, disk spasce return unassigned.

Array operation show only reboot or shutdown, and flag for reboot in safe mode

post new diagnostics

nas-diagnostics-20221221-0727.zip

Dec 21 01:50:03 NAS  emhttpd: shcmd (864): rmmod md-mod
Dec 21 01:50:03 NAS root: rmmod: ERROR: Module md_mod is in use
Dec 21 01:50:03 NAS  emhttpd: shcmd (864): exit status: 1

Not sure what these are about over and over. See if it will let you reboot.

Rebooted, started the array in Maintenance mode, sync and done.

Everything is back to normal.

I will backup the whole array, just in case...

 

Thanks for the support

I've now had the same error. I received a temperature warning for Disk 2 then a a read error. Tried rebooting and the disk came up as not installed. I've tried following the instructions posted in this thread but after stopping and starting the array I don't see any option other than unassigned. Does that mean it's time for a new disk or is there something I've missed or other things to try? Diagnostics attached.192.168.1.44-diagnostics-20221222-2146.zip

Since OP and others seem to be finished with this thread I guess you can have it. This "same error" though is found in many threads on the forum, not sure why you picked this one.

 

I think you must be leaving a lot out of your description. Disk2 is disabled, and I see connection problems with sde, but it doesn't seem possible that this could be the original disk2, since power on for sde is only 1 hour. Emulated disk2 contains 2.5T of files which couldn't possibly have been written in only 1 hour.

Can you give us a much more detailed description of exactly what you have done?

Array has been untouched for years, all disks have been in place for a very long time. I received an over temp error, I spun the disk down. I later received a second over temp error and a read error. I rebooted and after a slow reboot the the message emailed to me was 

Event: Unraid Disk 2 error
Subject: Alert [192.168.1.44] - Disk 2 in error state (disk dsbl)
Description: WDC_WD30EFRX-68EUZN0_WD-WMC4N0J86F6L (sde)
Importance: alert

 

The Disk is showing as "Not installed" and I can't see any options when stopped or started to reassign. I definitely haven't made any changes to the configuration. The figure of 2.5T of files sound correct. Does that help?

 

 

I guess your power on hours for that disk must have overflowed or something. Wonder what else it isn't reporting correctly. I think I would replace it

ok, thanks for your help

It look like this is a Problem with my Hardware. I had the same Errors when rebuilding the Disk. 

Removed 3 of my 4 RAM Sticks and the Problem is fixed (at least for Unraid). 

 

But Memtest doesn't find any issues, not sure what are the best steps moving forward...

 

 

Then rebuilded the Disk via this:
