December 22, 20241 yr I've just noticed that the Array tile on my dashboard is showing a SMART error with Disk 3. When I run a SMART test of Disk 3, I get no errors. When I look in the SMART error log, I see the details of the error, but I don't know what they mean. Can anyone help/advise? Edited December 22, 20241 yr by takkischitt

Thanks for the response, itimpi. It shows as "UDMA CRC error count". Is this anything to be worried about, or should I just acknowledge it, but keep an eye out for any more errors appearing?

This is a connection error (frequently caused by SATA cabling or power) rather than a drive error and triggers a retry so as such just slows things down unless you gets lots of them. Occasional ones are not something to worry about but if they occur frequently check the cabling. Note it never resets to 0 so all you can do is stop it increasing.
