Hi,
The other night one of the drives in the Freenas box started making a scraping noise. Almost like something was scraping across the platter. I powered down the box, moved it out of the closed, and now the noise is gone. However, I suspect this is only temporary before it does it again.
I ran a short smart test on all the drives (8) and everything came back as a PASS.
Two questions here:
1. The box uses a Dell H200 to connect the drives. Does this effect the smart test?
2. Is there a way to test the drive further? Will a longer smart test uncover more information?
Thanks for the help!
