hard drive errors, is disk dying

[Greygoose]

Disk 1 kicked up some errors,

whats best approach to resolve this, or is the disk dying?

It would be best to post the full diags, but it does look like a disk issue, run an extended SMART test.

Just started an extended test and will post back with the results

Hi Johnnie,

It passed the last extended test, but if failed one a few hours before:

Num  Test_Description    Status                  Remaining  LifeTime(hours)  LBA_of_first_error
# 1  Extended offline    Completed without error       00%     20800         -
# 2  Extended offline    Completed: read failure       40%     20745         7337814160

 

This confirms it was a disk problem, it is fine for now but you'll want to keep an eye on it, it will likely fail again soon.

Thanks Johnnie,

 

This is still under warranty so I will make arrangements to RMA
