Problem with disk Seagate St300DM001
Hello, I have 2 ReadyNAS; one old model NV and a more recent model 104. It's strange but I have more problems with the 104. I have added 2 new disks both 2 Seagate model ST3000DM001 and after f...
You say ou "added" these new drives. What was already in there?
Unfortunately, you made a poor choice of the new drives. "Green" drives such as the Seagate "DM" family are not well suited for a NAS. They notoriously do what happened to you -- go into power saving mode and the NAS declares them "dead". especially if mixed with non-green drives. That particular drive is not on the compatibility list, though the 2TB version is (a mistake, IMHO). While tools exist to change some behavior parameters on the WD green drives, I am not aware of a similar tool for Seagate.
Disabling disk spin-down on the NAS may help some.
The drive giving you the uncorrectable errors sounds like it may have a real problem, though I have had a different drive type give that kind of error and it was also not real. Have you checked the SMART errors? I hope you put that "dead" drive back in when you found it was actually OK. Otherwise, you are operating in a non-redundant mode and a second drive failure will kill the array (if you haven't lost it already since you cannot see the data).
Thank for the reply.
The disk #1 is a WD model WD10EFRX
The spin-down was already disabled
I checked the SMART but it say 0 error
The strange thing is that I don't see the temperature for this disk.
So you suggest to load the disk back on second trail?
And what about the disk on third trail? I have 142 GB data that look used but I can't see nothing.
Is there a way to restore these data?
So you don't have a backup?
No I don't have.
Anyway I have removed the disk and reload on channel 2, reformatted but when I try to create a new share on this volume I receive an error 1013030001 Commit failed.
The other disk that works on my laptop I have tried to reload but the system tell me that I have to remove because don't work.
Connected again on my laptop works fine and I see again the files copied for test before.
It look like my Nas don't like these disks.
Any suggestion?
Now I have a Nas 104 with only one 1TB disk
