April 10, 20242 yr I got a notification this morning of a reallocated sector count of 16 on a drive. Attached are the SMART stats. nas-smart-20240410-1632.zip Any need to worry yet, or just keep an eye on it for a while? Edited April 10, 20242 yr by FreeMan
April 10, 20242 yr Community Expert Solution In theory reallocated sectors are not a problem as long as the number remains stable, but they are never a good sign, and if they continue to increase the drive will need replacing. Definitely want to keep an eye on it. Might want to consider running the extended SMART test on the drive as that is a good way to test it’s health. if you click on the orange icon for the drive on the Dashboard and select the Acknowledge option Unraid will only notify you again if it increases.
April 10, 20242 yr Author That's why my spin down was disabled a couple of weeks back!!! It has to be disabled in order to run an extended test and it's really easy to forget to reenable it. Off I go to submit a suggestion.
