Not sure if this is the best place to ask this question.
I'm using rclone to back up my NAS to an external hard drive. After many minutes the file system becomes read-only seemingly randomly and the transfer stops. I have to unmount and remount the drive and start the backup again, but I would have to do that about 20 times. I'm having the same issue on multiple linux machines. The drive has no SMART info.
I can reformat if necessary, but I'm working on refreshing my cloud backup so I'll only risk it after I finish with that.
Here are the error messages rclone is giving me.
2024-07-10 10:06:39 ERROR : Meme/spann.png.kra: Failed to copy: open /mnt/bup/auto/data/Meme/spann.png.kra: read-only file system 2024-07-10 10:07:28 ERROR : Blender/mazda-rx8/textures/Map__58_Normal Bump.jpeg: Failed to set modification time: chtimes /mnt/bup/auto/data/Blender/mazda-rx8/textures/Map__58_Normal Bump.jpeg: read-only file system
How I'm mounting the drive. This is the only way I could figure out how to without having it be owned by root.
sudo mount -o rw,user,uid=1000,dmask=007,fmask=117 /dev/sda2 /mnt/bup
