Failed SMART usage Attribute: 246 message at startup

[Rajstopy]

Dear all,

I'm new in TrueNAS and just finished installing version 12 on the hardware below :

TrueNAS-12.0-U1
ASRock Rack X470D4U
AMD Ryzen 3 3200G Wraith Stealth Edition (3.6 GHz / 4 GHz)
2 x 16 Go DDR4 2666 MHz ECC
Seagate SSD IronWolf Pro 125 240 Go (System disk)
2 x Toshiba N300 4 To (Storage - RAID 1)

Each startup is leading in the critical error "Device: /dev/ada0, Failed SMART usage Attribute: 246 Unknown_Attribute.."
I've no idea what about that. What is disturbing me is the fact this error is tagged "critical". Otherwise, everything seems working fine.

Hereafter the smartctl output. Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Raj.

Can we believe S.M.A.R.T. ? - S.M.A.R.T. attribute list

It is strange that the drive is reporting an attribute that is unrecognized. You might want to contact Seagate support. Is the other drive the same model, and not reporting such an error?

PS. Even an old, used Intel SSD is usually good enough for FreeNAS / TrueNAS boot drive. It doesn't need to be large capacity, just reliable.

This link here might help. This appears to be a warning that you can ignore for now. The smartctl database does not have this drive included yet which is the reason for the discrepancy.

Great !

Many thanks to you guys. I’m ready to go ahead now
