UNRAID 6.8.3 - Sudden SMART errors on both Parity Drives


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hi Folks,

 

I randomly have SMART errors cropping up within the same week for both drives.

8 counts of Reallocated sectors on the 1st drive a number of days ago.

This morning I've spotted the 2nd parity drive has one UDMA CRC error.

 

I haven't enough experience to assess this properly, but from a bit of Googling, UDMA CRC's are a temporary lapse, usually caused by loose or faulty cables?

However the reallocated sectors error is more cause for concern as the machine has essentially decided these sectors are not usuable to reliably write data to?

 

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, and a single error is no case for concern, but if it keeps rising replace the SATA cable.

A few reallocated sectors can be OK, especially if they remain stable, if it keeps climbing it's best to replace it.
