July 22, 201114 yr Just a quick question about changing 2 drives for bigger ones because they were both reporting dodgy SMART problems/errors. I've replaced the 300GB drive with a 2TB one and rebuilt the data and now it says the parity is unchecked again. Should I run a parity check before replacing the second dodgy drive for a new one or just run parity check after I've rebuilt the second drive? Thanks for any help
July 23, 201114 yr Run it between. If you wait until after and there is a problem you won't know which drive to blame.
July 23, 201114 yr Author Thanks for the reply. The replacement drive hadn't finished pre-clearing before I went to bed so left the array doing a parity check overnight, then in the morning swapped the drives and rebuilt the second dodgy drive.
