Hi there,

WebUI shows an alert for /dev/ada0: Device: /dev/ada0, 3 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors.

I ran a long / extended SMART test for that disk. The result showed no errors.
After the test run i scrubed the whole pool -> no known data errors, pool is ONLINE.

A couple of hours later i ran another SMART long test. This is the result:

Code:
[root@midgard] ~# smartctl -a /dev/ada0

So do i need to replace that disk with a new one? This hdd is part of a mirror, not a raid(z).

Thanks for our help.

Your drive is on its way out. Make sure you have another ready because you will probably have to replace it soonish but not required just yet.

Completing a SMART test without error is independent of SMART monitoring status. In your case, attributes #5, #196, and #197 are cause for concern. The story they tell together is that 35 sectors were already remapped in the past, in two separate reallocation events, and there are more reallocations pending. I would replace the drive.
