Hi,
I've been using FreeNas for quite a while now and recently got a new build with 4 6TB WD purple in RAIDZ1. The day before yesterday the short s.m.a.r.t. selftest discovered a bad sector on one of the drives.
I started the whole RMA process and wanted to do a backup of the last changes before the new drive comes.
Here is where I have some issues:
-of course the bad sector had to be where some of the new data is stored (Murphy's law)
-copying of said new data doesn't work since that data is unreadable even though TLER is enabled (7 Seconds)
-shouldn't RAIDZ1 be able to cope with this?
So my question now is what the best course of action would be:
1. wait for the new drive, unplug the damaged drive and backup the last missing file without the broken drive before restoring the raidz1?
2. get FreeNas to remap the broken sector (however that would work) so I can finish my backup
3. I have no clue ;)
I hope somebody can help me
Thanks a whole lot
Regards
Nana
