Duo: second disk Smart errors after a month
Looking for some advice. Have had Duo for several years with no problem. Drives were 2 x Seagate ST32000542AS. A few months ago Disk 2 showed rapidly increasing Smart errors (Reallocated sectors increasing by 50 a day). Seagate sent a ST2000DL001-9VT156 as a warranty replacement. Now the replacement is showing the same problem.
Question: Is this likely a Duo problem, or just bad luck with the replacement drive? Thanks.

- StephenBGuru - Experienced UserIf it is reallocated sectors, it would have to be the drive. You can confirm this by connecting the drive to a PC and using another tool to look at the SMART stats (acronis drive monitor is one possibility).
