I have received this warning a number of times and it looks like 1 drive is heading for failure.
It says disk 3 is heading for failure
"Disk: Detected high uncorrectable error count: [14776] on disk 3 (Internal) [ST3000DM001-1ER166, Z500G723]. This condition often indicates an impending failure. Be prepared to replace this disk to maintain data redundancy."
When I look in my Volumes it shows all hdd green. So which is 3? 3 from the left or from the right?
And to install it can it be hot or should I power down and swap out?
Solved! Go to Solution.

It is counted from the left. You can power down the system, remove the disk, and confirm it by checking the serial number.
Generally I recommend hot insertion for replacement, but power-down insertion also works.
I suggest replacing it with either a WD Red drive or a Seagate Ironwolf drive. Generally NAS-purposed drives work better than desktop drives with RAID, and a lot of folks here (and elsewhere) have had problems with the ST3000DM001 drive in particular.
