In my freenas system, I have several volumes running, one of them is consist of 2 3TB WD RED with different model (I forgot the serial, but they are different). Both are set up in a single mirror volume. I installed transmission plugin for downloading torrents, the location of the jail is also on this volume as well as the download folder location.
The issues i'm having are that 20% of my downloads always suffered from failed checksum test. "x file piece z which has been downloaded has failed its checksum test". The first thing I did was to check the smart info from each hdd, turned out no errors nor bad sectors was found. One of the hdd also have suffered from failure that it is not detected anymore and volume status changed into "degraded" status. Restarted freenas and the problematic hdd turned on and back to normal, ran another smart test and still no problems at all on both hdd.
While only running on a single hdd before I restarted, I have not received any checksum errors at all for entire day, but smart test shown no issues on the problematic drive.
So here are list of possible cause based on my knowledge (listed based on its chance of possibility) :
Can anyone elaborate how likely each possible causes occur ? And what should I do about it ? Thanks, and also, Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. Sorry if I posted in the wrong place

- Mirroring problem between 2 different hdd models (with identical
size) - Unreliable smart test
- Transmission's problem (I have make sure to get its latest version)
- Network problem (DNS, ISP, modem, router, etc)
- CIFS problem
