[SOLVEDish] UnRAID reports pending sectors, SMART disagrees

Featured Replies

UnRAID v6.8.3

 

void-diagnostics-20200915-0707.zip

 

My monthly parity check on my backup server has produced read errors on disk 1 for the last two months...

 

The first time it happened there was no report of pending re-allocated sectors and the drive passed both a short and long smart self test so I wrote it off as a fluke and went on with my life.

 

This morning it happened again within minutes of the parity check starting, this time with UnRAID claiming there are 2 pending sectors:

However when I go to look at the drive stats in the context menu SMART doesn't report any pending or reallocated sectors??

I plan on moving the drive to a different slot and see if the error follows the disk or stays with the slot.

 

Anyone ever seen UnRAID misreport pending sectors like that before? Is SMART just slow on the uptake?

 

EDIT: Swapped disk with another slot, rerunning nocorrect check now.

 

EDIT2: It appears to be following the disk, different slot, same disk with read errors. No reports of reallocated sectors this time by unraid, just read errors.

EDIT: "solved" per say. I know the drive is dying though I do find the ghost re-allocated sectors reported strange. I have a new one on order.

Don't known why it's reporting pending sectors, did it report they changed to 0 after?

 

The disk does appear to be failing, though.

Nope, I got two notifications from UnRAID, one about the read errors and a second about the 2 pending sectors. I went to check the SMART stats and saw the discrepancy, canceled the check and shut down the server to swap the disk with another.

 

The diag file posted above is from before I shut down the server and after the alerts were generated.

I'll let the parity check finish and order a replacement disk. I missed my warranty window by about 6 months =(

Hi,

 

Pending sectors are considered 'suspect' by the drive.

 

If the drive subsequently reads OK from them, the pending count will reduce, effectively they will disappear.

If the drive continues to be unable to read from them, they will be remapped. In this case the pending counter is reset to zero and the remapped counter incremented.

 

 Looks like your drive is starting to fail, but not consistantly enough for the drive to remap the sector as yet.
