I noticed the dreaded red x next to one of my drives, and I was hoping someone could look at my logs and let me know if the drive is ok or not.

I read the tutorials and ran the diags BEFORE I rebooted and did not have a smart log for that drive and the syslog did show a bunch of disk3 write errors and disk3 read errors. The drive was not even seen by unraid after I stopped the array. I shutdown and checked all cables, basically I pushed on all of them to make sure they were in, and started it back up. The drive is now seen and after a second diag I see the smart log now. It says it passed but I wanted someone more experienced to take a look and let me know if I have to replace the drive. The drive in question is WDC_WD20EARS-00MVWB0_WD-WCAZA5837217-20171026-2200 or Disk3

Thanks,

Scott.

You should enable system notifications to get an immediate alert.

 

Next time post the complete diagnostics, but it looks like a bad SATA cable, replace it and rebuild to the same disk.

Thanks, I rebuilt it and it seems to be working fine so far. I thought I had enabled system notifications but I guess I didnt. Thanks for taking a look for me
