While the monthly scrub was running the following errors (at the bottom of the post, copied from syslog) were issued. I ran a full test smartctl -l selftest /dev/sdf and no errors were found. I did notice that the drive also upped its "raw read error rate" by a value of 4 from zero, but has since issued no further errors or problems. > === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === > Model Family: Western Digital Red (AF) > Device Model: WDC WD30EFRX-68EUZN0 > Serial Number: WD-WMC4N0990925 > LU WWN Device Id: 5 0014ee 603e8733c > Firmware Version: 80.00A80 > User Capacity: 3,000,592,982,016 bytes [3.00 TB] > Sector Sizes: 512 bytes logical, 4096 bytes physical > Rotation Rate: 5400 rpm > Device is: In smartctl database [for details use: -P show] > ATA Version is: ACS-2 (minor revision not indicated) > SATA Version is: SATA 3.0, 6.0 Gb/s (current: 6.0 Gb/s) > Local Time is: Mon Mar 2 14:26:46 2015 GMT > SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability. > SMART support is: Enabled > > === START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION === > SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED > > General SMART Values: > Offline data collection status: (0x00) Offline data collection activity > was never started. > Auto Offline Data Collection: Disabled. > Self-test execution status: ( 0) The previous self-test routine completed > without error or no self-test has ever > been run. > Total time to complete Offline > data collection: (40860) seconds. > Offline data collection > capabilities: (0x7b) SMART execute Offline immediate. > Auto Offline data collection on/off support. > Suspend Offline collection upon new > command. > Offline surface scan supported. > Self-test supported. > Conveyance Self-test supported. > Selective Self-test supported. > SMART capabilities: (0x0003) Saves SMART data before entering > power-saving mode. > Supports SMART auto save timer. > Error logging capability: (0x01) Error logging supported. > General Purpose Logging supported. > Short self-test routine > recommended polling time: ( 2) minutes. > Extended self-test routine > recommended polling time: ( 410) minutes. > Conveyance self-test routine > recommended polling time: ( 5) minutes. > SCT capabilities: (0x703d) SCT Status supported. > SCT Error Recovery Control supported. > SCT Feature Control supported. > SCT Data Table supported. > > SMART Attributes Data Structure revision number: 16 > Vendor Specific SMART Attributes with Thresholds: > ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME FLAG VALUE WORST THRESH TYPE UPDATED WHEN_FAILED RAW_VALUE > 1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate 0x002f 200 200 051 Pre-fail Always - 4 > 3 Spin_Up_Time 0x0027 186 179 021 Pre-fail Always - 5683 > 4 Start_Stop_Count 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age Always - 156 > 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 200 200 140 Pre-fail Always - 0 > 7 Seek_Error_Rate 0x002e 200 200 000 Old_age Always - 0 > 9 Power_On_Hours 0x0032 085 085 000 Old_age Always - 10965 > 10 Spin_Retry_Count 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age Always - 0 > 11 Calibration_Retry_Count 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age Always - 0 > 12 Power_Cycle_Count 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age Always - 156 > 192 Power-Off_Retract_Count 0x0032 200 200 000 Old_age Always - 91 > 193 Load_Cycle_Count 0x0032 199 199 000 Old_age Always - 4453 > 194 Temperature_Celsius 0x0022 118 111 000 Old_age Always - 32 > 196 Reallocated_Event_Count 0x0032 200 200 000 Old_age Always - 0 > 197 Current_Pending_Sector 0x0032 200 200 000 Old_age Always - 0 > 198 Offline_Uncorrectable 0x0030 100 253 000 Old_age Offline - 0 > 199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count 0x0032 200 200 000 Old_age Always - 0 > 200 Multi_Zone_Error_Rate 0x0008 200 200 000 Old_age Offline - 0 > > SMART Error Log Version: 1 > No Errors Logged > > SMART Self-test log structure revision number 1 > Num Test_Description Status Remaining LifeTime(hours) LBA_of_first_error > # 1 Extended offline Completed without error 00% 10949 - > # 2 Extended offline Completed without error 00% 5486 - > # 3 Short offline Completed without error 00% 5478 - > > SMART Selective self-test log data structure revision number 1 > SPAN MIN_LBA MAX_LBA CURRENT_TEST_STATUS > 1 0 0 Not_testing > 2 0 0 Not_testing > 3 0 0 Not_testing > 4 0 0 Not_testing > 5 0 0 Not_testing > Selective self-test flags (0x0): > After scanning selected spans, do NOT read-scan remainder of disk. > If Selective self-test is pending on power-up, resume after 0 minute delay. As you can see above the extended off line completed without error. I'm guessing it might be a case of "watch and see" if more errors start to happen then look at RMA'ing it? Or is the RRER a non issue/manufacture specific doesn't mean much in its own rights value? I also read that it can sometimes be caused by bad cables or noise bleed from unshielded cables, but would that hold true when the device it self knows a problem of some description related to it self has happened as opposed to the kernel throwing a wobbler but the drive not reporting anything. (I have had old/cheap sata cables cause intermittent kernel floods along the line of "device ata, resetting, link down" but none of these caused the drive it self to issue/know of any problems. > 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.367307] ata6.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x1e00 SErr 0x0 action 0x0 > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.367309] ata6.00: irq_stat 0x40000008 > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.367311] ata6.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.367313] ata6.00: cmd 60/00:48:d0:b9:96/04:00:52:01:00/40 tag 9 ncq 524288 in > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.367313] res 41/40:00:d8:bc:96/00:00:52:01:00/40 Emask 0x409 (media error) <F> > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.367314] ata6.00: status: { DRDY ERR } > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.367314] ata6.00: error: { UNC } > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368337] ata6.00: configured for UDMA/133 > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368365] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdf] Unhandled sense code > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368366] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdf] > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368366] Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368367] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdf] > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368368] Sense Key : Medium Error [current] [descriptor] > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368369] Descriptor sense data with sense descriptors (in hex): > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368369] 72 03 11 04 00 00 00 0c 00 0a 80 00 00 00 00 01 > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368372] 52 96 bc d8 > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368374] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdf] > Mar 1 12:50:44 borgCube kernel: [253970.368375] Add.
