Smart error on disc WD2002FAEX - like to change to bigger discs
Hi One of my 2gb disc's Western Digital WD2002FAEX gives me a SMART error: "Detected increasing uncorrectable errors[172] on disk 3 [WDC WD2002FAEX-007BA0, WD-WMAY00807383]. This often in...
Thanks StephenB.
I have now 5 pcs new 4 TB disks ready. (WD Red 4TB 3.5" NAS HDD)
I am currently uploading all data to jottacloud.
I will not update OS this time.
When backup is finish i will replace one bye one, wait for resync in between.
I have 2 of 5 old disks reporting SMART error.
q:
Should i start to change the disks with errors first, or should i start from top and change one by one (1+2+3+4+5 from top and down)?

It always risky when two disks have errors. If you can make a backup first you should.
You want to replace the disk in the worst shape first. If you aren't sure which one that is, perhaps post the SMART errors you are seeing on the two drives.
After that replace the other disk with errors.
Hi
thanks for answer StephenB!
I start with to hot swap no 3 if nobody obejects.

I would suggest that you do a back-up first before attempting to sync it. Given that you have a 2nd drive that might fail also.
