Hi there,

 

I've been seeing this errors for the past few weeks (almost 2 weeks):

Also had corruption to the bz files on the flash drive twice and finally I changed the flash drive to a new one (I always use usb 2.0).

 

However, today I see again those errors, can anyone guide me? Don't know exactly how to proceed.

 

Parity checks started to show over 1 million errors last week (I do once a week). I did a re-check writing corrections and the last one is showing now over 7 thousand errors.

 

My server has 4 Seagate Ironwolf 4TB drives (1 parity). And 1 480GB sata SSD which I use for cache and where the appdata folder lives. I do backups of that folder regularly.

 

I've uploaded the syslog if it helps.

 

Thank you.

More often than not that sort of error is due to a cabling issue (SATA or power). 

 

Please provide the full diagnostics instead of just the syslog so we can see more about your system.

Thanks for your quick reply, here you are the diagnostics.

Looks like a cabling issue for your drive  ata4.  I'm not familar where to find it in the diagnostics but if you  look under "Tools" "System Devices" and scroll down to "SCSI devices" you can see which drive need to have the cabling checked / changed for sata and power.  I had a simillar issue and changing the sata cable fixed it.

Hi, I've been busy these days, but today I changed the SATA cables both data and power and for now there are no error logs.

I'll wait until tomorrow to check if there's any erros and if there isn't I'll mark your reply as the solution.

Thank you.
