Disk test will not stop.
I have a ReadyNas 516 with 6 8TB drives. I started getting errors on the Raid-5 volume with one of the drives started having ATA errors... Disk: Detected increasing reallocated sector count: [333...
I started this disk test on May 17th, 2025. It would not stop as rebooting the NAS device only started the disk test back up.
The disk test finished this morning July 14th, 2025 at 3:18am. The NAS device seems back to normal now. There is no report for the Disk test if there were error or anything else with the volume or disks.
I'm not going to try a disk test again.... Ever.
I'm also replacing Disk 6 in the raid array as I've already had one reallocated error since the disk test finished early this morning.
Thanks for responding.
