ezzys Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 An old 2TB drive started showing errors and they have reacurred again after a reboot at the weekend. I have run an extended smart test and is passed (attached). What does this mean? Is the drive okay or should it be replaced. I have bought another 2TB drive as it was cheap so can replace, but want to know whether the drive is knackered or it could be pre-cleared and used again? unraid1-smart-20230510-1854.zip Quote Link to comment
Solution JorgeB Posted May 10, 2023 Solution Share Posted May 10, 2023 SMART test passed, but it's also showing some UNC @ LBA errors, give it it another chance, also a good idea to replace/swap cables first to rule that out, then if there are more errors with the same disk consider replacing.

ezzys Posted May 13, 2023 Author Share Posted May 13, 2023 Thanks changed cabels and appears to be going okay - will monitor and change if I get anymore errors. 1 Quote Link to comment
