I'm not panicking as this is non-critical data but I wanted to just get a 2nd opinion on my smart report for my red balled drive please. I've looked and don't think there is anything wrong, but more eyes are better than one.

 

Currently I'm reconstructing the drive from parity as a stress test, I'm more than 50% in and it's all good so far.

 

The unRAID install is as in my sig below, ie virtualised. Thanks in advance.

This may not be helpful but I just RMA'd a failed 2TB Hitachi drive that I was using in a windows box. The drive was acting funny (i.e. write failures) but nothing was showing up in the SMART report just like your drive. So I kept running tests on it and eventually thousands of reallocated sectors showed up in the SMART report. It seemed like there was some latency in the problems showing up in the SMART report.

I hope its not this. What tests did you run exactly? I can use any OS to run them.

 

Thanks for the help guys.

Driver looks fine, red balled can be from a lot of different things than just bad drive. Controller card issues, sata port issues, bad cabling (power or sata) even other drives. Last week when I would do a parity check 3 drives would all disappear. I would power off and then they would be back. Finally, one drive died and disabled another disk with it. Used special command to get it to trust the redballed and recoverd dead drive through parity to another drive and everything is now great. One stupid bad drive that smart tested okay ended up being culprit and I would not of known until it failed.
