Confused about drive status


Recommended Posts

One of my drives under the Main tab has a Red X and says drive is disabled, contents emulated. When i click on the drive through it says mounted and my SMART status is PASSED. I didn't make any configuration changes when this happened. I simply did a safe shutdown, then booted the server back up and the drive went into this state. I don't know how to get it out and back into normal state. I thought the drive had failed as it is old, but as the SMART scan is passed, I'm confused.

Diagnostics would be a boon.

 

But what happened is that a write to the drive failed.  Because of that, the drive was disabled, and all writes / reads from it are now emulated using the contents of the other drives + parity drives.

 

To get it back, you need to

  1. Stop the array
  2. Unassign the drive
  3. start the array
  4. Stop the array
  5. Reassign the drive
  6. unRaid will now rebuild the contents from the emulated drive back to the disabled drive.
