chickensoup Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 A few months ago a 1TB Seagate drive in my unRAID box died while a friend was borrowing it, however I was overseas at the time so he simply stopped using the server. When I returned I got the server back up and running by simply removing the drive from the array and everything was good again. I'll come back to this drive in a second. Now, just my luck about a week later I've lost another drive - this time a 1TB WD Green The good news? The WD drive has not failed SMART & passed both a short and full WDDiag test, doesn't have any reallocated sectors or pending sectors but does have this which I'm not sure about: 199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count 0x0032 200 169 000 Old_age Always - 117 Full SMART report for WD drive is attached. The Seagate drive I have has also not failed SMART, has passed a short Seatools and is currently running through a long Seatools test. I haven't yet looked at the SMART report for that drive but will do so after the full-test is complete. I'm starting to wonder if it's just a cabling issue. Could anyone shed light on my SMART report? +Edit: When it dropped out of the array it only had 2 errors and initially when I tried to run a smart test it was giving me some message about not being able to locate the drive (even though it was 'mounted') - this is when i removed it from the trayless rack and ran wddiag on a different pc. wd-smartctl.txt Link to comment
chickensoup Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 SMART report for Seagate drive attached - it passed the full Seatools test, I think it looks OK and doesn't have any critical data on it so I might use this to rebuild for now and re-add the Green drive after. Any thoughts? sg-smartctl.txt Link to comment
chickensoup Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 Tried to rebuild onto the Seagate drive and though the speed started good, last night before I went to bed it dropped to 5mb/sec rebuild then back to normal. I ignored it at the time, went to bed and in the morning it was still rebuilding at 5mb/sec - I had to go out today so I left it anyway, there were no errors. After a full night and full day of rebuilding it was only 30% complete running at 5mb/sec so I have stopped and taken the drive out. For now, I'm rebuilding onto a spare WD Red I have and if that goes well I'll remove it and try rebuilding back to the WD Green. All else fails I'll go buy another drive.. Link to comment
