August 27, 20169 yr My parity drive was labeled invalid and had a red x on it. I rebuilt the parity, but system log showed write errors a few hours into rebuilding. I changed out sata connectors, data and power, and used a different psu with the same result. Is the drive bad or is something else wrong? The array was working for a few weeks before this happened. tower-smart-20160827-0015.zip tower-syslog-20160720-1055.zip
August 27, 20169 yr Community Expert Why don't you post up what your hardware configuration is. Be specific about MB, CPU, add-in cards, and hard drive configuration details. You might also try another "SMART short self-test:". You get to that point by clicking on the Disk name in the 'Device' column on the 'Main' tab. Then click on the 'Self Test' tab.

August 27, 20169 yr Community Expert What are you using this card --- SAS9211-8I 8PORT Int 6GB Sata+sas Pcie 2.0 --- for? I only see five drives and, apparently, the MB has 6 SATA 6Gb/s connections on it.
August 27, 20169 yr Author Ok this is weird, but it rebuilt fine now and it's showing the drive as good. I switched network cables, so I guess that was it? hope this helps someone else.
