Physical Drive with wrong size and model detected.

John2K · June 3, 2020

Hi

i have a weird problem.

i got a small unraid nas with 1 parity disk and 1 data drive + cache running on the stable version of unraid (6.8.3)

everything work fine but now, i have a problem.

yesterday, my usb drive crash. i restore an old backup (with backup and restore).

the nas start, i chose my data drive 8tb and now, the parity disk are detected as a 4tb drive.

i check with lshw in the unraid terminal to check for a possible bug and no, the drive are still detected as a 4tb.

i try with the last beta available. but the drive are still detected as a 4tb. i revert to the stable version.

when i received the drive. i preclear it

Preclear: total elapsed time: 93:14:47

the drive are only 2-3 month old.

do you have any idea how to fix this or if the drive are dead and need warranty replacement ?

Thanks

John

Are you sure that the backup is not from a time when you DID have a 4TB parity drive? The SMART report agrees that it is a 4TB drive.

the drive are still detected as 4tb

Presumably, the drive you're having problems with is the one you've separately attached SMART for. It IS a 4TB (ST4000VN008)
