NAS Project
I “recently” ordered (after doing some research) a Raidsonic Icybox NAS (full model: IB-NAS4220-B). I chose it because of:
- gigabit ethernet port
- dual disk support with JBOD/Mirror/Stripe
- runs linux
- Samba/NFS/FTP/iTunes server
- community site http://www.nas-4220.org/
- low power consumtion
- quiet
- …
The NAS arrived a week ago, and I ordered two Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 750gb disks (model: ST3750640AS) to go in it. I prefer seagate for the 5 years of warranty they give on their disks. They arrived two days ago.
Unfortunately, after initial stress tests I got the following SMART errors (using smartctl, part of the wonderful smartmontools) on one of the disks:
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: FAILED!
Drive failure expected in less than 24 hours. SAVE ALL DATA.
See vendor-specific Attribute list for failed Attributes.
The vendor-specific Attribute is:
| ID# | ATTRIBUTE_NAME | FLAG | VALUE | WORST | THRESH | TYPE | UPDATED | WHEN_FAILED | RAW_VALUE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | Spin_Retry_Count | 0x0013 | 069 | 069 | 097 | Pre-fail | Always | FAILING_NOW |
which isn’t very healthy :(
The disk is packed up and ready to be shipped back to the store…
