Ready NAS104 - Bit rot protection - silent error
I purchased and setup a ReadyNAS 104 10 days ago and set it up with 4x4TB WD Red drives. Its running firmware 6.2.2. I then copied around 3.5TB of data (mainly media files) from old USB drives to ...
Last night I got another 14 alerts from another file in the same folder.
This time I made a copy of the file and have checked it against the original file I copied onto the NAS (I still have the original source media). They have the same SHA256 so it seems that this file is unchanged since I first copied it.
I also have a set of logs from 10 minutes after the alerts were sent. Quickly checking those indicates no smart errors and nothing in volume.log that looks odd.
Should I mail these logs as well? This is giving me some concern and I would like to know what is happening here.
