[SOLVED] Ready NAS Duo unaccessible after a resync
Hello,
A few days ago, I've received a warning about a resync that have to be done on the NAS
I clicked on it, This warns me about the background task and the fact that the NAS will still be accessible.
36 hours later :
- no frontview access
- no ping response
- no reachable via Raidar
- blue led is still on
- green led are on but not so bright (I sync they might blink to fast for me that leads to a low light intensity)
What should I do ?
- do I have to shut it down ?
- do I have to let it work (besides the fact that I have no clue of what it is currently doing ?
NB : both smart+ where OK before starting the resync process.
Best regards,
Manitooo

- Well, I think a non-zero current pending sector count is enough in itself to suggest a disk needs replacing.
Its a count of sectors that couldn't be read - if the errors had happened on a write, they would have been reallocated. So a small non-zero count is the same as a small number of reallocated sectors. Of course in both cases there are potentially a lot more failures with sectors that haven't been accessed recently. Also, disks can misbehave in ways that don't show up as horrible SMART stats. So if people are seeing hangs/poor performance, etc. then the disk might well be bad even if the stats look decent. The threshold for replacement is to some degree a personal decision (like most risk management).mdgm wrote: Well, I think a non-zero current pending sector count is enough in itself to suggest a disk needs replacing.
But this case is not in the gray zone - ~525 pending sectors means the disk is bad.- OK, it has boot this night then went stuck this morning.. the DISK 1 smart + indicator is increasing...

I will stop it now (before trying to boot it again.. will try to save data a find a new HDD..
on my other nas, Hitachi HDD seems to be stronger than WD...
I hope that the NAS can boot correctly when only the DISK 2 is in ! - After shuting down the NAS, and removing the disk 1.. all is ok... I just get the time to find an other HDD and make a quick backup on the other NAS.. sorry for the delayed answer. Thank you very much for your time and help.
