Ussama Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Story time Server froze up and when it restarted of course a parity check started. It was going really slow and then I started to get seek errors. Being a responsible unraid owner I purchased a new drive to replace the failing drive. I got the new drive in today. It replaced a vertical sata drive for a SAS drive in my disk shelve. Started the rebuild process, but it was going slow too and then I started getting seek errors on another drive that was vertical also. I relocated this 2nd drive to a horizontal slot and the seek errors went away. I know that according to Google that the orientation does not effect the drive. Would this a situation of a drive going bad, a connection that's bad, or something else. This drive are in rosewell hot-swap bays, but I have other drives in external Disk shelves Quote Link to comment

Rosewill bays while they do work (I have 24 bays total), they can at times be flakely and always require that little extra push after they are locked in place Quote Link to comment
