[SOLVED] Parity Check Causes Problems (Disk Errors, Red Balls)

Featured Replies

last time i completed a parity check was when i converted my drives to xfs

i havent complete a parity check since and its been about 2-3 months now.

im trying to complete a parity now but i keep getting errors

it will eventually fail and red ball a drive or half of my array for some reason

i the run new config to put things back and everything goes back to valid

 

i stopped trying to complete the parity check for a few days and my arrary was still valid

mover still worked fine and no errors when transferring from cache to protected array

so i tried parity check again and same thing happens again with errors and redballs

 

parity check also goes at 5mb so i know then its going to fail

i bought new breakout and sata cables in case that was the issue but nope

 

system diag is attached

 

EDIT:

 

i also tried building a new parity drive but still goes at 5mb and then continue to fails

Start a new parity check and monitor this attribute, if it increases change sata cables.
