Netgar ReadyNas 516 New Drive Install Seagate-Command Timeouts
Problem with ReadNas 516 Diskless
Firmware on NAS 6.75
All New Drives Seagate ST6000NE0021 3
No Problems with new install in a used NAS except for Disk 3 has 20 command timeouts, Disk 5 has 7 Command timeouts, Disk 6 has 113 command timeouts.
Drive Firmware ENO2, 6TB Drive
All Reporting Command timeouts, even in Raidar 6.3
All these drive cant be bad? According to what I have read this can be an erroneous issue-
Please help- Been reading this on forums-and it says it is??
I haven't seen this myself. I believe the drive counts ATA errors, but the OS drivers might be counting the command timeouts. If so, I think that an issue with one drive can cause sata bus timeouts on other drives.
Can you look in disk_info.log, and see if there are ATA errors there (and if they are tracking the command timeouts)?

I'd wait a while and see if the counts continue to rise.
It could be that disk 6 is bad though.
There was a 4th drive that I sent back at 17,000+ timeouts
But the question is is this normal "all drives seeing command timeouts and all being new??
