October 2, 20205 yr I’ve installed a new HDD and tried to run a smart test but the test never starts. I’ve attached the downloaded smart report containing the drive info and smart capabilities, also diagnostics. Does this drive just not support smartmontools or is there some defect and I should get an RMA? smart_report.txt brunnhilde-diagnostics-20201002-1017.zip Edited October 2, 20205 yr by wgstarks
October 2, 20205 yr SMART report is missing a lot of stuff, and there are some errors, possibly a device problem. BTW, what is a Mercury Elite Pro Elite Pro? Is it a white label drive?

October 2, 20205 yr Author I went ahead and requested an RMA. Have to say I like that company’s support. They’re sending me a replacement prior to me returning the original.
October 10, 20205 yr Author Not sure what's going on. I got a replacement drive. Ran one preclear cycle just to test it. No problems shown with the smart report (attached). Mounted the drive via UD and I get the same screwy smart report (also attached). Preclear_ PASS! Preclearing Disk sdd Finished!!! Cycle 1 of 1.txt Mercury_Elite_Pro_Elite_Pro_VDKYZYZM-20201010-1715.txt
October 11, 20205 yr Yes, something strange going on there, preclear seems to be getting the correct data, do you have a custom SMART controller set? Full diags might also help.
October 11, 20205 yr Author No custom controller. Diagnostics attached. brunnhilde-diagnostics-20201011-0643.zip

October 11, 20205 yr Author Not sure if this is relevant but after the preclear was completed I was unable to mount the disk using UD. I had to re-format it first. Both the binhex preclear docker and UD should have been using XFS AFAIK. Not sure why I needed to format again?
October 11, 20205 yr Try connecting that disk to the LSI instead to see if it makes any difference, swap with another if needed.
October 11, 20205 yr Author Good idea. It is in an external esata enclosure now (wasn't for the preclear). I have another disk that is at 50% on it's last preclear cycle. I'll swap them as soon as it's finished.
October 11, 20205 yr It is in an external esata enclosure now (wasn't for the preclear). Then that might be the problem.
