XigmaNAS

I've had some problems in the past with simple raid1, so I decided to jump ship and create a mirror zpool. The disks are ada0 and ada1. All went fine creating the pool and copying data to it.

When I reboot or shutdown&boot nas4free the ada0 is not found. I need to remove it from the disk management interface, remove its power cable and reinsert its power cable, the disk spins up, and re-add it in the disk management interface.

Any reboot or shutdown&boot will render the ada0 disk not found.

I tried different power cables and different sata cables.

Can anyone help me isolate what the problem is with ada0 not being recognised/found at boot?

can you post the dmesg output when the disk is not recognized.

Herewith the dmesg in the state whereby it was removed from disk management.

pls post smart values of the drive.

and did you enable ahci in the bios for sata?

diag_infos_smart.php doesn't list ada0, see below
ahci? I didn't enable ahci, unless it is called something else in my bios? Not sure what it is really.

there is something wrong with that drive.
i suggest that you get a replacement for it.

Thanks b0ssman! Now I can battle with the manufacturer to get a replacement
Whilst I'm at it, any other drives that you would suggest replacing based on the SMART?

that could be an indication of vibration in your case. and the raw read error could be because you havnt updated the firmware (cant tell with those drives)

Thanks b0ssman! While I can't exclude some vibration, all drives are mounted on the same mounting brackets. I guess the other drives should show there is vibration also?
How would one go about updating the firmware of a HDD through nas4free?

the samsung update program is a dos program so no updating through nas4free

I would just like to rule out a possibility.
The SMART info seems to suggest something is wrong with the drive.
I have replaced SATA cables as well as power cables.
BUT, I have not linked the drive to another port on the motherboard. Do you think it is possible that the port on the motherboard would be the culprit? How would I go about trying the disk on another port without messing up the complete nas4free set-up? Thanks!

i would not trust that drive anymore

Thanks for your help and views b0ssman!

I just put in a brand new drive, and issued the command zpool replace TR ada0, nothing happens. Same when I try with ada0.nop

How can I re-establish my ZFS with the new drive? Thanks!

EDIT: I gave up. Shut down and went for a walk. When I came back I started up nas4free, and wonder, ZFS is rebuilding. I don't understand why it didn't do it earlier and now does it automatically. Anyway, seems the issue is solved, let's hope.

This used to actually be an external USB disk. I guess the vibration/G-Sense dates from back in those days?

yes values dont reset.
