I have a SuperMicro X7SBi with ICH9R SATA running 64bit linux 2.6.24.4.
I have 4 1TB disks connected to the motherboard, and one of the disks
is logging an error message. Everything is brand new, and hooked up
just a few weeks ago.
S.M.A.R.T. shows no errors (see output from "smartctl -a" at the bottom
of this email) after running both a short and long offline selftest,
and my question is if its possible to tell from this error message what
the problem is. The result "51/04:00:0a:24:f9" is a bit crypting to me,
and it would be nice to know what the problem actually is before
returning the disk.
What a coincidence :) The ata wiki, just created yesterday, had a new
page added yesterday:
http://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Libata_error_messages
Heh, yeah, now I know that the controller sent the command "ea" to the
disk, and that the disk has indicated a device error, but I am afraid it
doesnt really tell me alot more than i already knew, ie: not alot. :)
All arguments to this "ea" command seems to have been 0? And the error has
"status = 0x51" listing som LBA location on the disk where the error
occured?
Sorry, but I dont know enough about the protocol to understand most of
this, could you please help me decode it futher?
Best regards,
Tomas
