ReadyNAS - A RAID that is not a RAID
I have owned and used ReadyNAS models for many, many years and also used them at work. I personally own three which are an NV+, and two Pro Business Edition models. At work we have three 1100 models. ...
For reference, I recently had a drive failure in my old NV+ which was running the latest hardware.
I got numerous email warnings that it was about to die:
When it did finally fail, over a month after the initial warning, everything stayed online quite happily.
I'm very confident in my ReadyNAS storage which is why I happily bought another one earlier this year.
I got numerous email warnings that it was about to die:
Reallocated sector count has increased in the last day.
Disk 4:
Previous count: 34
Current count: 77
ATA error count has increased in the last day.
Disk 4:
Previous count: 0
Current count: 12
Growing SMART errors indicate a disk that may fail soon. If the errors continue to increase, you should be prepared to replace the disk.

Disk fail event occurred on SATA channel 4.
If the failed disk is used in a RAID level 1, 5, or X-RAID volume, please note that volume is now unprotected, and an additional disk failure may render that volume dead.
