February 10, 20233 yr Brand new Seagate 6TB drive is already getting error messages. I have never seen that high of an error rate before, is the disk DOA and I should return it? I am doing a preclear on that disk right now. Already switched from HBA to MB SATA ports and different SATA cables and it still does the error message. unraid-diagnostics-20230209-2243.zip Edited February 10, 20233 yr by Paul_Ber
February 10, 20233 yr Community Expert You should not monitor the RAW value for that attribute with Seagate drives, it's a multi bit value, it's good practice to monitor it for WD drives though.

So it looks like it would be a pain seeing this all the time. unraid-diagnostics-20230210-0300.zip

You must have added this in Disk Settings, or in the settings for that individual disk. (Your sig doesn't work in light mode)
February 10, 20233 yr Community Expert For example, my parity drive, Seagate Iron Wolf, has this ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME FLAGS VALUE WORST THRESH FAIL RAW_VALUE 1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate POSR-- 084 064 044 - 241554872 and I never get reports for it because I didn't add that attribute for reporting. My backup server has some WD disks and I have set those to report on this attribute.
