January 1, 20206 yr Hey all, Just got some read errors on a drive when doing a monthly parity check. I paused the check - should I just let it resume? And should I take the server offline for now, or let it still run? Device is still showing normal operation. I'm assuming next steps are get a new drive, remove the old one, install the new one, and rebuild? Thanks!

January 1, 20206 yr Community Expert First steps will be to post the system diagnostics zip file (obtained via Tools -> Diagnostics) so we can see what the state of your system actually is and whether it looks like you have a disk problem or something else.
January 2, 20206 yr Community Expert It was a disk problem, these errors can sometimes be intermittent, though never a good sign, run an extended SMART test, if it fails you should replace the disk.
January 3, 20206 yr Author Completed without error. Raw Value for Raw read error rate is 212, up from where it was before by quite a bit. So buy a new drive, but don't lose sleep over this?
