[Solved] Seagate ST3000DM001-9YN166: Load Cycle Count
Hi, sorry if this has been discussed already, all i could find are topics about upgrading the firmware on these drives. I've got a NV+v2 with 4 3TB ST3000DM001-9YN166 disks in it, firmware CCH4 ...

I have the exact same setup too. A NV+ v2 with (3) Seagate ST3000DM001-9YN166 drives, all less than 90 days old. They have had spindown issues, increasing command timeouts, and eventually failed drives. Netgear support has been very slow in responding to me and have yet to receive any good answers. I am curious if anyone has figured out any answers. I wonder if these drives really shouldn't be used in this setup.
Sun Oct 14 13:11:01 PDT 2012Detected increasing command timeouts[65537] on disk 1 [ST3000DM001-9YN166, W1F0W1W4]. This often indicates an impending failure. Please be prepared to replace this disk to maintain data redundancy.
Sun Oct 14 11:07:23 PDT 2012If 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. If this disk is a part of a RAID 10 volume,your volume is still protected if more than half of the disks alive. But another failure of disks been marked may render that volume dead. It is recommended that you replace the failed disk as soon as possible to maintain optimal protection of your volume.
