Hi Mark. Yes, when the first timeout after a clean boot happens, it's with an 0xea flush command every time: [...] ata5: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) ata5.00: ATA-8: ST3750523AS, CC34, max UDMA/133 ata5.00: 1465149168 sectors, multi 0: LBA48 NCQ (depth 31/32) ata5.00: configured for UDMA/133 scsi 4:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA ST3750523AS CC34 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] 1465149168 512-byte hardware sectors: (750 GB/698 GiB) sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Write Protect is off sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] 1465149168 512-byte hardware sectors: (750 GB/698 GiB) sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Write Protect is off sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sde: sde1 sde2 sde3 sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Attached SCSI disk sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 0 [later] ata5.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen ata5.00: cmd ea/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 res 40/00:00:00:4f:c2/00:00:00:00:00/40 Emask 0x4 (timeout) ata5.00: status: { DRDY } ata5: hard resetting link ata5: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) ata5.00: configured for UDMA/133 ata5: EH complete sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] 1465149168 512-byte hardware sectors: (750 GB/698 GiB) sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Write Protect is off sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 sd 4:0:0:0: [sde] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA end_request: I/O error, dev sde, sector 1465147264 md: super_written gets error=-5, uptodate=0 raid10: Disk failure on sde3, disabling device. raid10: Operation continuing on 4 devices.
