So I have about 12 disks in a windows server 2022 in a JBOD configuration. All the data is backup and I use HD Sentinel to monitor. All disks are in a supermicro 846 cases. HD Sentinel recently alerted me to the following errors:
Disk 4 - SMART Error 197 - value 36205
Disk 3 - SMART Error 197 - value 36206
Disk 2- SMART Error 197 - value 47034
Disk 1 - SMART Error 197 - value 30134; SMART Error 198 - value 27624
Disk 7 - Smart Error 197 - value 40474; SMART Error 198 - value 30
I also have several disks that are reporting a SMART Error 199 (CRC Error Count). I see that Error 197 is Current Pending Sector Count. Does this mean that most of my disks are about to fail? I just ordered a new SAS cable hoping that fixes all the code 199s but I am really concern with the disks that have the code 197 as most of those disks are out of warranty (most of the disks are like 5 to 6 years old).
Thanks
