[6.5.3] slow array reads and CRC errors *SOLVED*

[Alphahelix]

Dear all,

 

I know this should not be placed here, but I do not know where else to put it, so please let me know if I need to move this thread.

 

OK to my observation. I have had great issues with my unRAID. Slow disks speeds loss of a partition resulting in 4TB of data, poof gone. and 4300+ RCR errors in rougly 72 hours. All of these errors was caused by a single SFF-8087 cable. Now I write this to help others as a preventive action. So if you see CRC-errors and or slow array speed it could be a SATA or SAS (if you use that in your setup). As these are relatively cheap, my suggestion is keep at least a fresh set in case you need to change.

 

Thats all. Have a great day...
