Did I just brick my SAS drive?
I was trying to make a pool with the other 5 drives and this one kept giving errors. As a completer beginner I turned to gpt…
What can I do? Is that drive bricked for good?
Don’t clown on me, I understand my mistake in running shell scripts from Ai…
EMPTY DRIVES NO DATA
The initial error was:
Edit: sde and SDA are the same drive, name just changed for some reason And also I know it was 100% my fault and preventable 😞
**Edit: ** from LM22, output of sudo sg_format -vv /dev/sda
BIG EDIT:
For people that can help (btw, thx a lot), some more relevant info:
Exact drive model: SEAGATE ST4000NM0023 XMGG
HBA model and firmware: lspci | grep -i raid 00:17.0 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation SATA Controller [RAID mode] Its an LSI card Bought it here
Kernel version / distro: I was using Truenas when I formatted it. Now trouble shooting on other PC got (6.8.0-38-generic), Linux Mint 22
Whether the controller supports DIF/DIX (T10 PI): output of lspci -vv
Whether other identical drives still work in the same slot/cable: yes all the other 5 drives worked when i set up a RAIDZ2 and a couple of them are exact same model of HDD
COMMANDS This is what I got for each command: verbatim output from
Thanks for all the help 😁
By the time you ask AI you could just read the docs
I did both 🙏
AI is so much faster than reading docs. And you get context specific responses that you can drill into. When used correctly it’s very useful.
This was using it… incorrectly though…
Totally agree. The docs don’t talk back and can’t clarify specifics or uncertainty. I always read the docs first (probably should have noted that in my first comment), but often I’d have specific questions or concerns regarding unintended affects on other services on my sever etc.
I’d never JUST run with AI to set something up. But it’s like having someone sit with you who knows what they’re doing, but dont know anything about your existing setup. So asking questions while also explaining my current setup, and pasting in and errors or warnings, is what made it useful for me.
I know some people think you should just learn from docs alone. That’s fine. My anecdotal comment was only highlighting how I was finally able to do something outside my knowledge and skillset because I had specific contextual help from AI.
