Laire Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Hello, today suddenly I couldn't connect to my unRAID Server. Not with putty or the web dashboard. My Server has no GPU so I can't connect a monitor. I did a hard reset and after booting up i get the info for one HDD. "device is disabled contents emulated". I am not so familiar with hardware diagnostic but when I read the smart data, it looks like a damaged HDD or? I download the diagnostic files after the hard reset. Disk 2 is the bad one. homeserver-diagnostics-20180926-2357.zip Edited September 26, 2018 by Laire Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Disk looks fine, it's one of two disks connected to a Marvell controller though, those aren't recommended and would be my prime suspect, recommend you swap that disk with one on the onboard ports and rebuild (make sure the emulated disk is mounting before rebuilding on top), and if it happens again see if it follows the disk or it happens to another disk to the Marvell.

Laire Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share Posted September 26, 2018 Ok, I will test it. Quote Link to comment
Laire Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) I switched the harddrives and it runs three days without an error. Today in the morning all dockers stop with the error: read system only. looks like it is the drive sdh. Is there a possibility to run a check like chkdsk to find out if there is a hardware error? homeserver-diagnostics-20180930-1217.zip Edited September 30, 2018 by Laire Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 A reboot should bring the array online, until it happens again. there are read errors on both disks connected to the Marvell controller, I believe this confirms my earlier suspicions and you should get rid of it. Quote Link to comment
Laire Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 Yes, after reboot i could restart the array. In the moment I have no other possibilities, I have to use a controller card, because there is nor mini itx Board with AMD Sockel with more than 4 SATA conectors on board. Quote Link to comment
Laire Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 I had to restart twice before it started the docker container again Quote Link to comment

You don't have to use a Marvell one, if you only need 2 ports you can get an Asmedia controller for like $15. Quote Link to comment
Laire Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 Is JMicron also OK? Don't find one from Asmedia in German Shops. Quote Link to comment

Possibly, but Asmedia is better, this one for example: https://www.amazon.de/Syba-SY-PEX40039-PCI-EXPRESS-Controller-Karte/dp/B005B0A6ZS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1538381539&sr=8-1&keywords=SY-PEX40039 Quote Link to comment
Laire Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 Hello, thx for the link. I searched for controller with more than 2 SATA ports so I din't found your example Quote Link to comment
