April 3, 20242 yr Hi Community Is there any way to let unraid move files and folders from drives with smart errors on it's own? Like Stiablebit Drivepool for example? Is there a way to do it while the array is started?
April 3, 20242 yr Community Expert If the SMART report is bad enough, you should rebuild it to a new disk. Then you don't need to move anything. If you don't want to replace the disk, then you could move it but that might not be the best solution depending on other details. Copy instead of move would probably be more reliable. And if you didn't replace the disk, then you would need to New Config and rebuild parity without it. You shouldn't keep unreliable disks in the array. Also, you must always have another copy of anything important and irreplaceable. Parity is not a substitute for backups. If you have an actual problem you want advice on, Attach diagnostics to your NEXT post in this thread.
