Problem with one HDD

Featured Replies

Hi
I have a problem with one of the HDDs.
I noticed an "x"  on the disk (photo)
I don't know what happened, can you help me diagnose the problem?

Please post the diagnostics: Tools -> Diagnostics

First thing you need to do is to make your server not internet facing, now let me see if I can find the disk errors in the middle of all those login attempts.

  • Community Expert

Can't find them, either missed them or they are not there since there are several hours missing because of all the log spam, disk looks healthy, would recommend replacing/swapping cables to rule them out and rebuild on top.

I changed the SATA cable, changed the SATA ports on the board, changed to a different power cable.
I did changes with all cables between all disks, unfortunately this one disk does not work all the time.

I'm doing this test, but it will take a few hours - SMART extended self-test

Of course, the SMART extended self-test did very well. (this test lasted several hours)

So I deleted this disk from Array and decided to treat it now with Preclear. For now, it is on step 2 out of 6 steps. (Pretclear has been doing a long time too)

Waiting for it to finish, then I will add the disk to Array.
Hope it helps.

What do you mean with you deleted the disk from the array ?

Is the disk still emulated? Otherwise I hope you have backups of the data that was on disk 3!

 

 

Did you take @johnnie.black's advice and made sure your Unraid Interface is not facing the internet?

Preaclear is not finished doing yet.

One disk failure will not result in data loss (I hope)

Depends on your answer to this question

Yes, the entire drive was emulated.
Pretclear was successful.

I have now reconnected this disk to Array and the data-rebuild has started.

The data-rebuild process itself will now take over 5 hours. I'll let you know when it ends.

I didn't delete it, I just disconnected it. But the disk was emulated.

I disconnected from the Array so that the disk was unassigned then I could make Preclear on that disk.

I didn't do that, maybe some advice, I don't have much experience in UNRAID.
I also have to log in to the server remotely.

You should never expose your Unraid UI to the internet. Not even if you have to remotely connect to the machine.

 

You should use a vpn connection.

Wireguard on Unraid

 

Check the blogpost under the link above to get familiar with the Unraid Wireguard implementation.

I didn't look at the logs before since you had already been warned. Close all ports on your router immediately and/or take your server out of the DMZ on your router. The internet is full of bots that automatically look for things to attack and will attack relentlessly.

 

Just a sample from your syslog. There are likely hundreds of others and it will continue until you take your server off the internet:

I will apply this solution, thank you for the information.

 

The disk that was cleaned with Preclear I added it back to the Array and it rebuilt.
HDD has been working for several days without a problem.

Happy to hear that the rebuild worked and you did not loose any data.

 

@ZiemaF: Did you tackle the "facing the internet" issue? You really should!
