I ran preclear twice on 2 new 4TB WD Red NAS drive. The first preclear went fine but the second the post-read ended after only an hour, showing a

Log Sense failed, IE page [scsi response fails sanity test]

error in the SMART result. I then ran both through another preclear session. One is still running the post-read but the other finished after an hour and it shows the same error. I ran smartctl and got this:

I ran with the -H option and got this

At this point I think it's one of three things - the drive is bad, the controller is failing, or I need a larger PSU to accommodate the new drives.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Disk dropped offline, power down, check cables and power back up, then check SMART.

I hate to revive a dead thread but I had the same happen.  Now I've had it run the smart test and everything seems fine again but now the status is the disk is emulated.  Should I stop it, drop that disk and restart and then put that disk back and restart to get thee disk online?

Not entirely sure what you have in mind with the words "drop" and "put back", but that is mostly correct. But instead of those words, try "unassign" and "reassign". No need to unplug the drives or whatever else you might have had in mind. After the reassign/restart it will rebuild the drive.
