Nightstalk3rs Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hello all, I just recently ran into an issue in my UnRAID setup in which one of my disks randomly became disabled. I believe it was during the process of me cleaning my server and possibly knocking the SATA cable loose. After shutting down and checking/fixing the SATA cable, the disk was available to add to the array, but still remains disabled. I have completed a SMART report on the drive and have uploaded it here. While the UnRAID GUI reports that it completed without error, I just feel more comfortable posting it here for someone to take a look at. I believe that this is simply just an issue due to a loose SATA cable, but I just wanted to be safe and have the SMART report reviewed in case there is any potential that the drive is failing. If the drive is okay, I believe I will still have to rebuild the drive due to a potential write failure to the drive, hence why the drive became disabled. If so, what are the available options to do such a process? I read in a previous post that it's as simple as: Stop the array Set the disk to be not installed Start the array Stop the array Set the disk to be the appropriate disk Start the array I appreciate any assistance I can get, and I would much rather be safe than sorry. Thank you in advance! WDC_WD20EARS-00MVWB0_WD-WMAZA0659735-20170425-1838.txt Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 SMART looks fine. Your understanding of what happened and how to proceed is good. Quote Link to comment

Thank you for the quick response. The drive has currently been rebuilding for a few hours and I don't anticipate any issues. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment
