Evening all, hoping for some help please, a drive has recently started flagging errors and causing issues when trying to access data within. 

Done a fair bit of googling but all suggested options have failed. I've tried a new SATA, New MOBO Port, and swapping the power cable to no avail, would opinions suggest it's dying? 

Unable to run any new smart tests without them failing. Latest report attached. Contemplating disabling the drive and running via Parity emulation until I can get hold of a new one, dont have any spare 10tb's laying around. Or maybe attempt to wipe and rebuild.

Opinions welcome.

Cheers in advance.

SMART Extended Self-test Log Version: 1 (1 sectors)
Num  Test_Description    Status                  Remaining  LifeTime(hours)  LBA_of_first_error
# 1  Extended offline    Completed: unknown failure    90%     19501         0

That's because the disk has failed.

 

Do any of your other disks show SMART ( 👎 ) warning on the DASHBOARD page?

Thanks,

Just one other, an SSD in one of my Cache Pools, but it's had an error for ages and I assume unrelated. Need to get it sorted, but it's in a pool and a low value drive/content so not a priority.

Any point in trying to recover the failed drive do you think?

UDMA CRC ERRORs are bad connections, doesn't look like it has increased so I wouldn't worry about it. You can click on the SMART ( 👎 ) warning on the DASHBOARD page to Acknowledge and it will warn again if it increases.

Disk8 is mounted. You should be able to rebuild to a new disk.
