January 1, 20179 yr Hello everyone! I'm having an issue with one of my drives. It keeps showing as disabled, but I know the drive is good. Could this be caused by a faulty port on the motherboard? I plan to pull the PC apart later and switch ports. I just wanted to know if anyone has had this issue before.
January 1, 20179 yr Community Expert You need to upload the Diagnostics file. 'Tools' >>> 'Diagnostics'
January 2, 20179 yr Community Expert Yes, post diagnostics. That will help us decide whether the disk is in fact good. Even if the drive is good it will have to be rebuilt. That is how you enable a disk again. unRAID disables a disk when a write to it fails. It could be that a faulty connection is to blame, but even if you fix that unRAID will not use the disk again until it is rebuilt because the drive contents are invalid. The write that failed is in the parity array, as well as any writes that occurred after the disk was disabled. The valid data for the disk is in the array, but not on the disk, so it must be rebuilt. After posting the diagnostic, go read this wiki and wait for further advice. What do I do if I get a red X next to a hard disk?

January 2, 20179 yr Community Expert SMART for 2UAT looks OK. Check connections, power and SATA, both ends, then you can try to rebuild to the same disk. Have you read the wiki I linked? Also, syslog says your cache is full. 2 x 60GB btrfs raid1 only gives you 60GB cache total. And filling up btrfs cache seems to be a good way to corrupt it, so you may have other problems besides just disk1
January 2, 20179 yr Author I looked over the wiki. I will actually read it later. I was wondering why the cache was full. Not sure if i set something wrong
January 2, 20179 yr Author Looked at the cache drive and it had a windows 10 vimg that I didn't need. That cleared up a lot of space.
