October 8, 20241 yr Hi all, I have just completed a parity rebuild during which a few UDMA errors were detected. Fix Common Problems plugin has detected an MCE - it suggests loading diagnostics here and asking for support from the community. as such, could someone take a look at the diagnostics and advise me what action I should take from here. Thanks Guys, GT xeus-diagnostics-20241009-0606.zip
October 8, 20241 yr Community Expert It appear to be a RAM problem: Oct 8 04:29:22 XEUS mcelog: corrected Socket memory error count exceeded threshold: 300 in 24h 6 minutes ago, GeeTeeNZ said: parity rebuild during which a few UDMA errors were detected. Not just CRC errors, disk 10 appears to be failing: Oct 8 10:57:24 XEUS kernel: critical medium error, dev sdb, sector 7310380208 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x0 phys_seg 21 prio class 2 Oct 8 10:57:24 XEUS kernel: md: disk10 read error, sector=7310380144 Run an extended SMART test.

Will do! yeah, this drive is pretty old. I have a new 12TB coming in a couple of weeks to replace it with - do you think it is safe to continue using this drive till then (there's nothing stored on it currently). Lastly, I want to learn more about diagnosing problems - is there a Noob guide/FAQ on how to go about interpreting these diagnostic files?? cheers, GT
