unRAID 6.6.7 crashed, cant figure out why and now the sys log is reporting HPA detected ?


Recommended Posts

Tower diagnostics is attached and full system info is at the bottom of the post, so here we go :)

 

My unRAID server 6.6.7 have been running with no issues since I switched out my old Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2H motherboard with my current MSI - 785GTM-E45 (MS-7549), I switched out the Gigabyte because of the dreaded  HPA issue.

An hour ago unRAID crashed and rebooted on me, while doing nothing but being on and I have no ide why,  and cant seem to figure it out by looking at the system log, but what I forud, by looking though the log is that HPA seems to be back on one of my disks :(


Right now unRAID is doing a Parity-Check and all seems to be working as it should, but full check will take around 18 hours...

 

So I kind of got 2 questions here:

1. Can anyone pinpoint the reason for the crash and reboot in the system log, I can not because it is beyond my skill set, so to speak ?

2. Anyone have any ide why HPA is back again and maybe what to do about it, because as far as I know it should not be an issue with my current MSI - 785GTM-E45 (MS-7549) motherboard ?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated, because I use my unRAID for all media streaming and data back up in my house, and right now I have 33TB of data on my 40TB unRAID server 😮

 

Cheers...

Diags after rebooting can't show why it crashed, and the HPA just needs to be removed or ignored, it wound't appear on its own.

Okay thanks, then I will be looking for a new motherboard again, since the MSI - 785GTM-E45 (MS-7549) must suffer from the HPA issue as well, a bit of a bummer but it is what it is :)
