August 6, 20232 yr Hello, During my usual monthly parity check, I received some read errors concerning one of my parity drives: Event: Unraid array errors Subject: Warning [ZACK-UNRAID] - array has errors Description: Array has 1 disk with read errors Importance: warning Parity disk - WDC_WD60EFRX-68MYMN1_WD-WX51DA47619X (sdd) (errors 256) After the parity check completed, I ran a smart disk extended test on the parity drive but all seemed fine. See attached. This morning I received another warning about this drive. I fear the end is near: Event: Fix Common Problems - Zack-unRAID Subject: Errors have been found with your server (Zack-unRAID). Description: Investigate at Settings / User Utilities / Fix Common Problems Importance: alert * **parity (WDC_WD60EFRX-68MYMN1_WD-WX51DA47619X) has read errors** I attach the smart drive tests and my unRAID server data. Is there anything I can do to either confirm the drive is close to failing or that these errors are anomalies? The drive in question is old...Thanks! zack-unraid-smart-20230806-1150.zip zack-unraid-diagnostics-20230806-1152.zip
