All those writes would be recovered by rebuilding from parity.

Thanks for all your help and pointers, it seems to be ok now, i am sure the problem was power distribution which might explain the randomness of the drives being disabled, i think if one to many drives span up on that rail one of the other drives would suffer power shortage effectively causing UNraid to disable 21 hours ago, trurl said: Note however that the disabled disk had at least one unsuccessful write that caused it to be disabled, and possibly more emulated writes after that.

Its set to write corrections to parity Last check completed on Fri 14 Aug 2020 09:58:21 PM BST (two days ago), finding 866 errors. Duration: 8 hours, 18 minutes, 41 seconds. Average speed: 100.3 MB/sec Edited August 16, 20205 yr by loady
