Hi,

sometimes you can get a loose connection. If it is in a raid set you should be able to pull it out and put it back in again and it will automatically rebuild into the raid set. (depending on the raid controller...)
It just might need the connectors reseated. First thing I'd try...

Thanks,
Ben Donohue

I have a brand new QNAP NAS with 4 SATA HD as 'Striping Disk Volume: Drive
1 2 3 4', installed couple of month ago

when 1st installed, using QNAP web i/f, I've run SMART tests, all were
100%, etc

yesterday, it seems HD3 suffered total failure, if says:

---------------------
Summary HD3
Hard disk does not exist.
---------------------
(though, LCD panel says disk 4: "HD4 ejected")

I can ssh to the NAS:

- what sort of tests or whatever can I run before I pull the unit down ?

- what sort of utility can I run to 'detect and notify' should such
failure occurs again ?
