ozone31912 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) First time unraid user here. I am having trouble getting my setup started. The drive, which has been working great before a format, has become disabled with a red x beside the drive. I get the notification that the drive is disabled, followed by an error saying 3 of my drives have read errors. I tried running xfs -L on the drive and re-seated the drive and completed a rebuild and parity check. After that, the drive becomes disabled again. I have completed a read-check on all the drives (except drive 2) and all came back with 0 read errors. I then took an error report (see attached). I have no important data on any of the drives. I believe drive 2,3 and 4 are all in the same external hard drive enclosure. If this is a controller issue, how do I go about fixing it? I have tried using a different usb port for the enclosure. Thanks in advance. tower-diagnostics-20190923-2128.zip Edited September 23, 2019 by ozone31912 Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 The syslog show USB disconnecting and then problems start occurring. USB drives are not recommended for array drives as the USB connection tends to be unreliable and Unraid does not handle drives disconnecting unexpectedly. Quote Link to comment
ozone31912 Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 Thanks itimpi, I will try to connect the enclosure via e-sata. I'll update the thread in an hour and let you know how it goes. Thanks again for the help Quote Link to comment
