starbetrayer Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Hi Guys, Yesterday I got some write errors on one drive and I got the message, drive disabled, content emulated. I ran a short smart test and a long smart test and the drive returned that it was fine. I successfully rebuilt the content of the drive overnight with the same drive. After that, I tried to add more data to the drive and the drive threw more write errors. I am a bit at a loss here. Is the controller LSI9207-8i shot or is the drive bad despite no smart errors ? Here are the diagnostics. Can you please have a look and let me know what you guys see ? galactica-diagnostics-20200112-1458.zip Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Swap cables/slot on that disk with a different one, then see if issue persists and if it follows the disk or not. Quote Link to comment

I swap cables and the location of the drive wit the controller, same issue... Should I conclude that the drive is dying/dead despite not reporting issues in Smart ? Quote Link to comment
