skank Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 joe, my first preclear try with my brand new wd20ears got the same result as stradle, as you know i did everything you said, and ran preclear again now after 23 hours, it still is at step 2, at 30 % of it , and its been there for at least 10 hours, and not going further now what? is something wrong? joe?

Joe L. Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Seagate ST32000542AS. I did 2 preclears with cc34 firmware Raw_Read_Error_Rate 0x000f 118 099 006 Raw_Read_Error_Rate 0x000f 116 099 006 I did one preclear with cc35 firmware. Raw_Read_Error_Rate 0x000f 116 099 006 Raw_Read_Error_Rate 0x000f 114 099 006 It seems this raw read error rate keeps going down. Is this a bad sign for the drive? Also there wasnt any reallocated sector or pending. I am wary because of all the bad comments on newegg about failures within a few months. When the raw-read error rate reaches the "failure threshold" of 6 you can worry. Right now, it is not even close. From what I can see the worst value was 099, so it has improved. I'd keep an eye on it but not be terribly concerned. Joe L. Quote Link to comment
skank Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Mine seems to have not gone too good. This was a brand new 2Tb drive. Bought 3 of these and seem to have precleared the other 2 fine. Only difference with this was that I was running 2 preclears at the same time. It seems to have done a lot quicker as the same 2Tb drive took 25 hours on its own to preclear so to get to step 10 after 9hours makes me think something is up with it. These were "2TB WD SATA2 WD20EARS 5400RPM" drives. Now when I try and preclear that drive, its messed up and wont even display the information. same thing i got 3 brand new ones, and got with one of them same result... i retried, and it hangs now.. i do find it strange that you have it too.. maybe something with the script i dunno but that my and your drive has died.. i dunno i never had any problems with new drives what if we just format the drive and use it in the array im really stuck here , someone else then?

Joe L. Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 The disk might have failed. The power or data connector might have come loose. If you get no output when you type sfdisk -g dev/sdb then there is nothing the preclear script can do to get it. you can try to power cycle the drive. (stop array, power down the server, and reboot) Quote Link to comment

Bolle Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm trying to use screen. Up following this: cd /boot at prompt: screen I get the following reply: Cannot find terminfo entry for 'xterm-color' I'm using Terminal from my iMac. Any idea what's going on? Quote Link to comment
amp1 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I ran into the same thing. I just use the command: TERM=ansi before I invoke screen, and that allows screen to work for me from an OS X terminal window telnet'd to my Unraid box. Quote Link to comment

Joe L. Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Just got this drive. Feedback please? There are no re-allocated sectors, or sectors pending re-allocation. No SMART paramter is FAILING_NOW as no normalized VALUE is at or below the failure THRESHOLD. Enjoy your new disk. Quote Link to comment
squirrellydw Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Just pre-cleared this drive 3 times can you please tell me if it looks good? I don't see any re-allocated or pending sectors but would like a 2nd opinion. syslog-2011-01-09.txt Quote Link to comment
dwoods99 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I am getting similar results (after 45 hours) like this on a WD Green 2TB drive (no jumpers) =========================================================================== = unRAID server Pre-Clear disk /dev/sdb = cycle 1 of 1 = Disk Pre-Clear-Read completed DONE = Step 1 of 10 - Copying zeros to first 2048k bytes DONE = Step 2 of 10 - Copying zeros to remainder of disk to clear it DONE = Step 3 of 10 - Disk is now cleared from MBR onward.

I tried some commands and got a script error... root@Tower:/boot/config# ./preclear_disk.sh -v ./preclear_disk.sh version: .9.8 root@Tower:/boot/config# ./preclear_disk.sh -t /dev/sda Pre-Clear unRAID Disk ######################################################################## ######################################################################## ./preclear_disk.sh: line 825: [: too many arguments ============================================================================ == == Disk /dev/sda is NOT precleared == ============================================================================ I was running this pre-clear at the same time as other disks. Should I try again by itself? Is there a way to bypass *all* the tests? BTW, I did not jumper it because I am setting things up to get ready for 5.0b3 to support these WD Green drives. Yes, the drive has stopped responding. (and the script was not coded to deal with that very elegantly) Most people find they'll need to power cycle the drive to get it to respond again. Even after that, many have had to clear the first few sectors to get it to respond sanely after changing the jumper (or adding it after the drive has been used without it being installed) Basically, we've found it does not even respond to anything when locked up. Not even an fdisk -l /dev/sdb will get complete results until you power cycle. As far as skipping "tests" sorry... can't unless you don't want to clear the drive and ensure it is cleared. Joe L. I hate re-quoting long posts but this goes back 4-5 pages. Anyways, after rebooting I went into fdisk and removed the existing empty NTFS partition that I had previously created when I first got it. Now after 30+ hours with a preclear check (w/o jumper), it comes out just fine... ready to use. Quote Link to comment
skank Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 can someone take a look at my result? its a wd20ears which i used unjumpered, jumpered it, and precleared is it safe to use? preclear_results.txt Quote Link to comment

skank Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 can someone take a look at my result? its a wd20ears which i used unjumpered, jumpered it, and precleared is it safe to use? Both disks look good. Both successfully cleared, no re-allocated sectors, no sectors pending re-allocation. Joe L. sweet so i guess im lucky it worked for me to use an unjumpered disk before, jumper it and use it in unraid Quote Link to comment

prostuff1 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Help Do you have any IDE disks in your system? If not then that disk you just successfully cleared is presenting itself as IDE. There is more than likely a setting in your BIOS that is setting the ports that drive is on to emulate and IDE connection. Beside that the drive looks fine. Quote Link to comment

splnut Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I got this drive used. The preclear results show the Power On Hours =23. The Preclear took about 25 hours. Does this mean that the drive was used for 23 hours before the test started? Or does this include the preclear test hours? Power_On_Hours 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age Always - 23 Quote Link to comment
Joe L. Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I got this drive used. The preclear results show the Power On Hours =23. The Preclear took about 25 hours. Does this mean that the drive was used for 23 hours before the test started? Or does this include the preclear test hours? Power_On_Hours 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age Always - 23 It depends. If that was from the smart report at the start of the preclear, then yes. If from the report at the end, I'd not trust it be accurate unless the drive, even though "used" was really not used, and the preclear took 23 hours. Quote Link to comment
