P.S: parity2 needs a new SATA cable.

 

Thanks so much johnnie for noting this.  I think this was the real culprit all along.  In 25 years of computer building I've never had a standard SATA go bad.

 

Everything is back in the array and a parity check showed no errors and it's been running a week now.

Probably not the cable itself, most likely the connectors. Same end result though.

 

Also, microsoft is very unhelpful, they will continue to let you use a bad cable until the connection fails completely. Ever wonder why some machines just seem to be REALLY slow for no reason even after a clean install and passing drive tests?

 

Linux at least tells you there may be an issue that you could troubleshoot.
