New Server - transferred all media - added parity disk - NOW one array disk showing read failure

[Dojimaster]

As title said,  I built a New Server - transferred all media (30TB) - added parity disk and ran initial parity set up - NOW one array disk showing read failure.

 

Please look at my diagnostics file attached - I'd appreciate some educated input.  Thank you.

It's a logged as a disk error, and the disk has pending sectors, so likely it's failing, you can run an extended SMART test to confirm.

Ran the extended test, and it stopped at 10% with this:  "Completed: read failure".

 

Its a recertified drive with a 5 year warranty, so I can get it replaced - but is there a way to recoevr the daya ? Should I copy to another drive(s) on the array?

 

Sadly its a 16GB, with 11-12 TB filled, so I'd need to split it if I copy it over or wait until a replacement arrives.

Confirms that the disk needs replacing.

What's the best strategy for copying that data over to another disk?

You can manually copy what you can, any read errors you will need to skip those files, or use ddrescue.

Yeah the drive is toast after all.  Failed hours into the Extended Smart Test.
