Hardware Upgrade Issues

[gadget069]

I updated my cpu/mobo last night. Now I'm having issues with one of my chache drives causing problems. I did change out some sata cables from ones I purchased off Amazon, they were giving me issues.

I swapped out some cables, no my dockers service will not start and my VM disappeared.....ugh. I'll get a new diagnostic file in a sec.

 

Edit, when enabling the docker service I get this error

First diags show the Samsung SSD dropping offline, seconds one still show ATA errors:

 

Jul 20 08:42:38 Tortuga kernel: ata5: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 320)
Jul 20 08:42:39 Tortuga kernel: ata5: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 320)
Jul 20 08:42:39 Tortuga kernel: ata5.00: supports DRM functions and may not be fully accessible

 

This is usually a cable problem.

I switched cables again this morning. I do have a sata card in an x16 slot, I wonder if that is casuing issues. But the cache drives are not on that card.

Samsung SSDs are very particular with cable quality.

The CT500MX is a Cricial drive. I've changed just about every cable, still having issues. My hardware swap was from a 5600g/MSI b450 to a 5950x/MSI b550. My case is a Silverstone CS380. If you have suggestions for good sata cables, that would be appreciated.

My bad, read the diags wrong, for the MX500 updating the firmware has been reported to help:

I'll have to give that a look. I had another spare EVO 850, So I did a swap and see what happens

I used Windows to update the drives firmware but am sticking with the EVO 850. I'm still running into errors

Those are btrfs checksum errors, a consequence of the device dropping offline before, run a correcting scrub to see if all errors are correctable and if no more ATA errors.

I've run a scrub 3 times, each time finding errors.

If it keeps finding new errors best to backup and re-format the pool.

It stopped finding new errors finally. It must have sorted itself out finally. Been running smooth since yesterday afternoon
