tcwatson Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 (edited) Hi, yesterday I got a yellow warning over my third disk (the most recent addition) citing it had Read errors. After some searching on these forums, I tried stopping the array and starting in maintenance mode so I could do Smart file system checks, which returned with no errors. I tried to rebuild the disk by stopping the array, selecting No Device for DIsk 3, starting the array, stopping again, and reassigning the drive to the Disk 3 slot. It aborted the rebuild (I think) after a few minutes. I looked through my syslogs and find that it has some write errors. Is this drive bad? I did order it off ebay and have only had it about 2 weeks. 8tb drive total and had written about 1.2tb to it. If it is bad - what precautions do I need to take with my array until I can order a new drive? Thanks tower-diagnostics-20180819-0701.zip Edit - forgot to mention I also did a full read check. Took about 17 hours and found no errors. Edited August 19, 2018 by tcwatson Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 SMART looks fine, I would first replace or swap cables an try to rebuild again, to rule them out, if it fails again it's likely the disk. Quote Link to comment
