May 11, 20233 yr Hi guys,  Slightly panicked here now 🥲  I've installed a Coral TPU in the M.2 slot, and discovered that using the second m.2 slot disables a couple of my SATA-ports. No worries, I had more slots on my SAS-controller so I moved the SATA disks over there.  Now I must have been careless with a couple of cables because after booting I still could't find the disks. I re-seated cables and tried again. Array went up fine, but after a short while Disk 3 and Disk 9 errored out and was emulated. I rebooted, did short SMART tests and then started a re-build. Disk 3 finished first (on account of being just 4TB), but again errored out while Disk 9 was being rebuilt.  Seeing as Disk 3 was my oldest and smallest disk I decided to buy a new and just replace it.  However when I'm currently preclearing this new drive I see Disk 10 error out which has me very concerned. I'm in the midst of a big preclear / rebuild and I'm without parity protection.  I'm attaching diagnostics that I fetched yesterday (when the old Disk 3 was still present) and current diagnostics which is during the rebuild. Any advice on my course of action to maximize likelyhood of success would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! tower-diagnostics-20230511-1908.zip tower-diagnostics-20230510-2236.zip Edited May 11, 20233 yr by Fredrick
May 11, 20233 yr Community Expert Look more like a power/connection issue, Samsung SSD also dropped, check/replace cables.
May 11, 20233 yr Author Ah yea I'd forgot about that. I've actually got a new (well used but newer) PSU lying around, maybe this is the right time to get it swapped in (after preclear and rebuild of disk 3 I guess).  Any other tips other than just having it preclear and rebuild without touching the server at all risking a new jank to appear?
