December 11, 20169 yr I just finished the preclear of a 6TB WD60EFRX. Everything looks normal except for the one line that says: Current_Pending_Sector=1 Should I RMA the drive and not use it? I was going to make this my new parity drive because I'm out of space.
December 11, 20169 yr If this is a brand new drive, yes I would RMA it, if its not a brand new drive, pre clear it two or three more times and see if the pending sector goes away. I replaced a 3TB drive due to a pending sector but after pre clearing it four times it went away and its now happily running in another one of my unRAID servers. If the pending sector number increases, RMA for sure.
