Hi Everyone,
I'm a computer "enthusiast" but very much a novice when it comes to NAS, servers and most other things relating to computers. Which is to say, I can build a computer, and even successfully set up a FreeNAS server that ran fine for close to three years, but now nothing is working and I don't have the slightest idea what the issue is or how to begin troubleshooting. This is my system:
SuperMicro X10-SLH-F
32Gb ECC RAM
Xeon 1225v3
SeaSonic SS-400FL
256gb SSD cache drive
4 Seagate 3tb drives running in RAID (I think 5, but it was three years ago -- definitely not 0).
I built the server in 2013, and it worked fine until this past summer. When I restart it, the SuperMicro flash screen works as usual. I checked the led lights on the motherboard and beep alerts against the SuperMicro manual, and everything seems to check out fine. I get a S.M.A.R.T. message about one of the seagate drives. After a whole bunch of largely incomprehensible (to me) text, I get the following, which is also incomprehensible to me but I can understand in the same way I understand foreign cuss words (which is to say, I don't know what it's saying, but it's clearly unhappy):
CAM status: ATA Status Error
ATA status: 41 (DRDY ERR), error: 40 (UNC )
RES: a bunch of numbers and letter (let me know if needed to diagnose)
Retrying Command
It then repeats this for a while.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
