I have a data drive that is coming up with the "Device Disabled, Content Emulated" Error.

 

I have done a Smart Test and that comes back fine, I am in the process of doing a smart extended test but Im going to put money on it being fine as well.

 

I think one of the ports on one of my SAS cards had a fit. Hopefully its just a temp issue as I have two SAS cards very close to each other.

 

Three of the four drives on one port start to give some errors so moving those drives to another port fixed the errors however the 2nd disk just comes up with the device disabled issue.

 

I have attached the diagnostic.zip.

 

Will creating a new config fix the issue? And is it as simple as going to tools/new config and clicking apply after the array has been stopped?

Diagnostics are from after rebooting so we can't see what happened, but the disk looks fine, you can do a new config if you're sure nothing was written to that disk after being disabled, or rebuild to the same disk if you're not.

Yea powered down the nas purely because the errors where localised to one port, just wasn't sure about the whole new config thing.

 

Thanks.
