July 13, 201312 yr I replaced a 3tb parity with a 4tb that worked fine then i took the 3tb and put it in the server as disc 6 when i tried to clear it with preclear it caused Disc 4 and Cache to mess up so when unraid failed to write it set DISC 4 as RED BALL. I tested if it was the SASLP-MVL8 by replacing it with the other one i have and that didn't work, i swapped one of the cables so it booted on slot 7 instead of the slot 3 cable and that still didnt work so now i cant tell is the hotswap bay broken is it the power or sata connection. If its the power connection or sata how does this cause a problems for the other drives on the controller? Right now its working in the bay next to it on the same controller and same power as the one next to it. I put the 3tb in the place of DISC 4 to rebuild the data next i will try to pre clear disc 4 and see if it is just that one bay. the case is a norco 4020 my syslog is here if anyone thinks it might help http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=28382.msg253823#msg253823 Thanks
