July 12, 201312 yr I've suddenly started having a few problems with my cache not moving things over properly. A few notes... - I don't use AFP - I'm not sure whether it's a drive/cable issue - it's a Green Power drive that I had lying around from a portable disc - It's plugged into a SuperMicro 8 port SATA card - Running the mover is taking a very long time, and when complete there are still files on the cache I've attached a SMART report, since the current pending sector is not zero (and according to the wiki it should be), and a portion of the Syslog which appears to have a lot of errors/failures (I have no idea). If the drive's on it's way out, fine - I'll chuck it - I was looking to put a SDD drive in there at some point. However, I'm hoping it's not related to RC16C, since that's when it started happening. If it turns out to be a hardware-related issue, feel free to remove this. syslog.txt smart.txt
July 12, 201312 yr If the drive's on it's way out, fine - I'll chuck it - There is a problem with the drive and you should replace it or do a preclear or badblocks in read write mode to reallocate those bad sectors. Frankly there is a FAILING_NOW attribute. The drive should be removed from service. 197 Current_Pending_Sector 0x0032 192 192 000 Old_age Always - 1353 198 Offline_Uncorrectable 0x0030 195 190 000 Old_age Offline - 966 200 Multi_Zone_Error_Rate 0x0008 001 001 051 Old_age Offline FAILING_NOW 204147
July 12, 201312 yr Author There is a problem with the drive and you should replace it or do a preclear or badblocks in read write mode to reallocate those bad sectors. Thank you very much. I had it as a cache, since it was sitting there, but if it's unreliable then fair enough. I'll perhaps look into how to do a preclear/badblocks, but in the meantime Mods feel free to remove this as it's evidently not unRAID related. Thank you again.

It would be an interesting exercise to preclear or do a badblocks in write mode to show if the blocks get reallocated. However the FAILING_NOW attribute means replace the drive. I would not suggest putting it back in service.
