Hello,
I bought two 800GB SAS SSDs and connected them to ports 12 and 13 on my R510 (yes, the internal 2.5" bays). I ran a short smart test on both of them and they look fine, been powered on ~4years but both have less than 1TB written or read to\from them. The first time I tried to create a striped volume from them (da2 and da3) the volume creation failed. When this occurred da3 disappeared from FreeNAS View Disks and did not report on boot as connected to the H200 (flashed to IT mode). I suspected the SAS SSD that showed up as da3 as bad and RMA'd it via the eBay seller. The seller shipped another SAS SSD, I hook it up, shows up as da3 and again when I tried to create a striped volume the creation fails (this time causing FreeNAS to unexpectedly reboot). Upon rebooting da3 is again gone. The SSD does not show up. Is FreeNAS or my H200 frying my SSD (now twice!)?
Thanks for the help!
Additional info:
Logs: cat /var/log/messages | grep da3 ---> (https://pastebin.com/raw/CS3vqmFb)
R510: 8GB RAM, 1x E5620
FreeNAS: 11.2-U2
SAS SSDs: They are HGST Ultrastar HUSMM8080ASS201. Purchased off eBay for ~$130/pc.
HBA info via sas2flash -listall: Ctlr= SAS2008(B2), Fw Ver = 20.00.07.00
Update #1: I took the SSD that "disappeared" and moved it from port 13 to 12 while leaving the working SSD disconnected (i.e. I did not plug anything into port 13). Now the "disappeared" shows up. However "geom disk list da2" shows "Mode: r0w0e0" and "smartctl -t short /dev/da2" gives me an immediate "Short offline self test failed [medium or hardware error (serious)]". This is a test that previously worked. Did I just get another bad SSD or did something else cause this?
