je82 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 (edited) Hello, Suddenly one of my 12tb drives that are new comes up as "Seek error rate - FAILING NOW" yet unraid has not generated any notification regarding this i just saw it in my dashboard overwhere where it was a thumbs down on the drive. I've attached the smart log, what are your thoughts on this? I have not yet written any data to the drive. nas-smart-20191122-1017.zip Edited November 22, 2019 by je82 Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Assuming it's within the warranty period It should be replaced. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Threshold is 50 and it's at 48, at some point in the past it was even lower at 31 Quote Link to comment

The chances of you getting a brand new drive with a manufacturer RMA is pretty low, normally they give you a refurb. Quote Link to comment

I've contacted the store and i will have a refund for the drive and i'll just buy a new one, this was recommended by the store as well as if i wanted to use warranty they would have to send it to the repair center and yeah i'd most likely get a refurb. Not a good track record for my toshibas, these are rather new... I have not had a single drive failure in over 10 years, only use seagate, but looking at backblaze statistics seagate are not great it seems, i guess i've been lucky. Started off by buying 4 brand new toshibas and one is already failing, not good Hopefully i was just really unlucky. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 They are not all large capacity disks, most are 3TB and lately I've been buying 6TB. Quote Link to comment
