Hello,

 

I have an array of about 8 Disks, off which Disk 1 is disabled and needs replacing. While i will get to doing so in a few days, i just noticed i am unable to write any data to the array. It starts copying files but then slowly slows down and completely stops... Is this normal ? Previously with a disabled disk i am able to use the server just fine.

 

any advice?

 

Thanks

Please post the diagnostics: Tools -> Diagnostics

Log is attached as requested.

I'm not seeing any errors on the log, did you try to copy something before downloading them? From where and to where are you copying?

Sorry about that, pls check log attached now.

There's a problem with disk7:

 

Nov 28 00:45:02 Tower kernel: md: disk7 read error, sector=3765769504
Nov 28 00:45:02 Tower kernel: md: disk7 read error, sector=3765769512
Nov 28 00:45:02 Tower kernel: md: disk7 read error, sector=3765769520
Nov 28 00:45:02 Tower kernel: md: disk7 read error, sector=3765769528

 

And since disk1 is disable parity can't handle an additional failure, the errors on the log look more like a connection issue, but SMART doesn't look very healthy, try replacing the cables, or swap them with another disk, if error stays with disk7 it's likely failing.
