Re: "Disk Failed", then "Disk Unplugged" errors

Post by whoslistening »

The problem is back. This is after updating to the most recent firmware (4.3.3.0299). I've replaced all four drives with brand new WD Reds, so it's definitely not the drive.

I have submitted a ticket but since my device is out of warranty, I'm not sure what resolution I'm going to get.

I must say I'm quite disappointed with QNAP on this, and it's making me look at just getting another brand.

Re: "Disk Failed", then "Disk Unplugged" errors

Post by bvandeering »

Hello i have a TS-415A I have four 3TB western digital RED HDD's. I had a disk fail got a replacement from WD, it failed got another replacement it failed got another replacement this time I ran the WD disk checker on the drive both quick tests and extended tests pass fine but again the drive fails on the rebuild and the NAS removes drive 3 from the array. Is there any thing that i am doing wrong? I am going to test out the current failed HD to see if show any errors now. I created a support case and QNAP reviewed the logs I sent and they confirmed read write errors but with this many drives?
Thanks Bob

You need to search the forum. You also need to list your software version and build date.

There was an issue with disks 3/4 being "unplugged" from the NAS. A later version of software fixed it.

If you look at my previous post, you'll see that I've already done that.

Another Unhappy QNAP User with Drive 3 WD red disk problems

Post by JWChris »

I have a TS-669 Pro with WD 4 terrabyte disks and following a firmware update about a week ago have had a very similar issue. Drive 3 failed and I had to rebuild the RAID with the remaining 5 disks.
Disk 3 was initially just set to spare and pronounced healthy but having carried out a full scan on it it has failed that and has now been set to Abnormal.
I have ordered a replacement drive which has not yet arrived so haven't yet raised a log with QNAP but research on here is convincing me that the problem is probably with them and not with my drive.
I am also concerned about the loss of data/ data scrubbing issue reported elsewhere.
I was going to buy a new QNAP to give me a second back up and more resilience as my 669 Pro has been very reliable for several years but I am also now concerned about the reliability and response of QNAP. I am holding off on a new NAS purchase until I am sure what is going on but my faith in my TS 669 Pro has been lost.
I think QNAP will lose a lot of business if they don't sort out what is going on quickly and issue full information.

I have a TS-451 with 4x WD Red 5TB and drive one keeps doing this as well. Has happened about four times now starting in July. No SMART issues on the drive (Drive 1), plug back in, rebuild then a few weeks later it happens again. I have not been using it continuously though, only really on weekends just to check for issues.

Software version and build date? Model of the HDDs? With 5, or more, disks in a RAID, you should be using RAID6, not RAID5.

I hope you have been doing backups.

This issue has been hitting some model's drives 3 & 4. You are not fitting the pattern, as it is drive 1.
