mattekure Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I have one disk that just came up with read errors. Is the disk in need of replacement or is there anything I can do? Diagnostics attached tower-diagnostics-20181124-0854.zip Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 It's a disk problem, you can run an extended SMART test and if it passes maybe give it a second chance, if it fails replace now. Quote Link to comment
mattekure Posted November 24, 2018 Author Share Posted November 24, 2018 Ok, extended self test started. I'll see what happens with it. Thanks Quote Link to comment
mattekure Posted November 24, 2018 Author Share Posted November 24, 2018 Hmm, extended self test completed without errors. So I guess I'll keep it around for a little bit and monitor it to be sure it doesnt happen again. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Not very surprising since there aren't any pending sectors, keep monitoring for more read errors and this attribute especially, this ideally should be zero, but more importantly, if it keeps increasing the disk will likely have more issues soon: ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME FLAGS VALUE WORST THRESH FAIL RAW_VALUE 1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate POSR-K 200 200 051 - 3 Quote Link to comment
mattekure Posted November 25, 2018 Author Share Posted November 25, 2018 I will keep an eye on this one. one lucky thing the drive is still under warranty until 2020, so I have some time to monitor and still possibly get it RMA'd if necessary. thanks for the advice. Quote Link to comment
