Ignore my profile this is for a different server. The server is running 5.0.5. I logged into the GUI and it showed a red dot on one of the hdd but it didnt say why. It said the configuration is valid. Its disk sdd. I have attached a syslog. Thanks

 

I also dont see anywhere that i can run a parity check. Am i missing something?

i was just saying after swapping all the hardware it still a problem. Ill try rebuilding it again but i have gone as far as to swapping the hdd with another and it showed disk 2 with the red ball still so at that point i had assumed it was the mobo because i had tried everything else

There is a free 'trial' license for v6 (limited to 3 attached devices).  Downside is it would need renewing every 30 days.

thats kind of a pain but maybe i can at least do it as a test and see if it changes anything with the disk...still waiting to rebuild the disk. im running a preclear on another disk so ill post again after i rebuild

well i replaced the drive with the same exact drive i did before and the red dot has gone away. Im not going crazy i swear ive done this before and like i said its the same drive. I keep an unplugged extra drive mounted in the chassis. So i will RMA the WD Red drive and take it from there. Thanks everyone!
