May 23, 201610 yr I have one drive (drive 2) which has been disabled. It shows a ridiculous number for writes and for reads, and doesn't respond to a spin up command, which leads me to believe that it's SATA connector may have come loose, as I have recently migrated my drives into a new server chassis and may have knocked something loose putting it all back together. Before I open up my server to check the connections and then attempt to rebuild the drive onto itself, I seek the wisdom of this forum to confirm that this is what likely happened. Diagnostics are attached. mnemosyne-diagnostics-20160523-1505.zip
May 23, 201610 yr Community Expert SMART looks fine, it did get very at some time in the past reaching 66C, well over the limit (60C), but if it's an old max it should be ok.
May 23, 201610 yr Author Yeah, that is a very old max. I shucked this drive from an external enclosure, and I suspect that it hit 66º during the brief time I used it as an external drive before shucking it. As everything else looks good, I'll open up my server and check the cables. Just to confirm, the procedure to rebuild a drive onto itself goes like this: stop array unassign disabled drive restart array stop array reassign previously disabled drive restart array, and unRAID begins the rebuild Is that correct?
