So I got this error notification that one of the drives is disabled. Here's some info on the box.


-Fix Common Problems doesn't give any information why and I don't know where to go from here.
-The drives are not even a year old and still under warranty. Bought Apr 2022.
-This Unraid-Box sits in my office and does Windows backup daily, raw photo dump occasionally

-My local backup for tons of raw photography files in their respective formats (.nef, .cr2, .raf plus some gopro videos in raw/compressed)

(The compressed versions are backed up online but not the raws)

-Also holds media for Plex (scheduled maints at 2am-5am daily)
-The drives are set to spin down after 1 hour of inactivity

-Version 6.12.0-rc2 (Uptime 5 days 9 hours 8 minutes)

 

Currently running an extended smart test (short self test passed without errors)

 

Any help is appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Copy that! Shutting down the box, order new cables and update the post when those are done and I've rebuilt. Thank you for the help!

 

PS: the cables I was using was this (CABLEDECONN High Speed 6Gbps 6pcs/Set Sata Cable SAS Cable for Server 0.5m)

Is it bad practice to use these type of cables?

Update:

-replaced problematic sata cables

-checked emulated drive, looked good

-extended smart test yielded no issues

-rebuilt on top of original drive
(stop array, unassigned the "bad" disk, started array, stopped again, re-assigned the same drive, start in maint mode, rebuild sync)

-added another wd red plus for second parity

 

tl;dr - it was bad sata cables - drive did not fail.
