Read errors on drive after power failure

Recommended Posts

Hey all, I have a disk reporting some read errors after a power outage. Not sure what happened exactly since I do have a UPS but it didn't seem to help anything. I'll be investigating that separately. See attached diagnostics.

 

Is this something I just keep an eye on if its increments or is this an issue?

It's a disk problem, you can run an extended SMART test, if it fails replace now, if it passes it might be OK to use for a while more, but it's likely on borrowed time, and keep an eye on this attribute:

 

ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME FLAGS VALUE WORST THRESH FAIL RAW_VALUE
1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate POSR-K 200 200 051 - 68

Ideally it should be zero, anything above low double digits is usually a very bad sign.

I tried to run an extended SMART report and it got stuck on 90% for like forever. It's running a parity check, not sure if it has anything to do with it.

 

The drive is still under warranty, is it possible to RMA?

You shouldn't do both things at the same time, in practice a parity check is as good a test as the extended SMART test, just make sure it's running a non correcting check.

Yes, just report the problem as read errors (UNC at LBA on the SMART report)

Okay so it sounds l like after the parity check, run an extended SMART test.

One or the other is enough for now, if there are read errors during the parity check it needs to be replaced now.

Or should I RMA regardless?

In my experience once they start getting those high double digit raw read errors it's just a matter of time until it fails again, on the other hand, RMA refurnished disks are a crapshoot, so you decide, unless you can trade it with a new one, then go for it.
