April 2, 20233 yr Not sure what is going on here, my sdm drive became disabled about a week or so ago. I removed it from the array, and then let it rebuild. This morning I woke up to find it disabled again. I ran the short self tests, which came back without errors. I am thinking it could be a bad sata cable?

April 2, 20233 yr Community Expert Could be a power/cable issue, there have also been some reports of newer Seagate drives having issues with LSI SAS2 controllers, so I would recommend connecting it to the onboard SATA with new cables.
April 2, 20233 yr Author Thank you, I did not realize that. I have ordered new sata cables and a new drive for dual parity, and will recable my server based upon your recommendation.
