May 5, 201016 yr I've now seen this bug twice. First time was when I was messing about, unsuccessfully, with adding a jumper to one of my WD15EARS data drives. Although I have the syslog, its usefulness is likely to be diluted buy a host of errors from the drive (I had to remove the jumper to get it back to normal). Not good data. Second time: new WD20EARS, jumper added before use. - Precleared drive - Stopped array - Assigned to disk4 - Started array - disks 2, 3 and 4 showed as unformatted. Screenshot attached. (Not disk1? Have vague recall that all 3 data disks showed unformatted when I first saw the bug) - stopped array - restarted array - only disk4 shows unformatted. Screenshot attached - formatted disk4; all looks good. syslog attached Motherboard= GA-MA785GT-UD3H CPU= AMD Sempron 140 2.7GHz Let me know if there are other tests/data that would be helpful Archive.zip
