  12. CMBall started following SSD not showing up in bios anymore after 3 days
  13. CMBall
    I got a new 860 evo and it worked for a day then I switched motherboards and it stopped working. It would show up in bios for the first couple boots but wouldn’t show up in windows but not it’s completely stopped showing up in bios. I have a ASUS z390e gaming motherboard with a m.2 ssd and hdd that are currently working but the new 3rd isn’t. I’ve updating bios to the newest and have enabled csm. Please help and thank you. My specs if helpful: CPU: i5 9600kMotherboard: ASUS Z390 e gamingRam: Corsair Vengeance 16gb 8x2SSD: m.2 intel 600p 256gb860 evo 1tb (the not working one)HDD: WD Caviar Black 1tbGPU: Strix 2080tiPSU: EVGA GQ 750w Gold+Chassis: NZXT s340 eliteOS: Windows 10 Pro 64bit Bios Version: 1305

    Nope. From memory, both Honda and Nissan have used hard disk based ICE in their vehicles much more recently than that! D:

    Hard drive errors, time to get a new one?

    continuum replied to Perseus Legend's topic in Hard Disk Drives (HDD)

    Run the drive manufacturer's diagnostic utility. If it gives a pass after both long and short tests, don't worry about it. If it fails, definitely get a new drive. Raw SMART values are notoriously difficult to interpret given the varying meanings between manufacturers on what exactly in those values constitute failures vs. failing vs. health. You can break it down if you want-- I know several people who do so with skill on other forums-- but running the manufacturer's test is by far the easiest thing to do for a reasonable answer.

    Kixs97 did you try to create _one_ large partition (GPT formatted disk) bigger than 2TB on the drive ? (like the pic I posted above) That's the real test to do to see if the size is supported.

    onboard raid controller giving me grief

    continuum replied to cypher007's topic in RAID Cards and HBAs

    The destination client under #1 is a different system in #2, #3, or #4? If so sounds like something is weird with client #1.

    Kevin OBrien replied to cypher007's topic in RAID Cards and HBAs

    I don't know if I'd ever reccomend anyone use RAID0, especially network shares. In your setup are you using a BIOS controlled software RAID for all of this, or Windows Server software RAID?

    News comments now link to reddit?

    Brian replied to reader50's topic in Site Suggestions & Help

    The forums just haven't been engaged with much, we have more engagement with Reddit, so we're experimenting there. Revamped the podcast...doing all sorts of things to see if we can better figure out a way to engage with our audience.

    Yes, I noticed that as well. The username and password didn't transfer to the new website. :( It seems like the end of SR 2.0.

    I see there have been no forum comment threads for news posts since Nov 19. When I followed a comment link, it took me to reddit. Which I've never signed up with. Is SR discontinuing the forum here? I notice a lot of spam lately, even after I reported one. Spam still up days later. I actually wanted to comment on the Seagate dual-actuator story. They talk about HAMR, release it to trusted partners for testing ... and we hear nothing more. No public release. They talk about dual-actuator, now released to trusted partners for testing ... and no word on public availability. The future seems to be putting up a fight about becoming the present. Are the HAMR drives experiencing issues in testing? That would explain why they haven't shipped yet.

    I have had issues with the following system in the past not being stable. This was improved when Gigabyte released a new bios. Since then I have had very occasional reboots which have left the machine stuck at the "boot failure detected" screen. Which when investigating the issue it pointed to a problem with the graphics driver. system: windows server 2019 Gigabyte Z170M D3H F22f bios 8GB corsair 3000mghz XMP Intel 6100T Antec Earthwatts 380W psu drive config below. so moving forward I have now found a repeatable task that will cause the system to reboot every time: 1) if I copy a large file (78GB for instance) using the server 2019 desktop to push the file to a network share from the Raid 0 I have on 2x Hitachi 4TB NAS drives (that also have a raid 1 setup on them). result REEBOOT. 2) if I pull the file from the same array using another windows 10 machine it transfers fine. 3) if I transfer the same file to the other raid 0 (2x 120gb ssd's) I have on the same server it works fine. 4) if I then send that file from the SSD raid 0 to a network share it works fine. it only reboots when I push the file from the raid 0 on the 2x NAS drives. the drive config is as follows: server 2019 on 2x 128GB crucial M4-CT128M4SSD2 drives in raid 0. data drives on 2x 4TB Hitachi HGST HDN724040ALE640 drives. configured as 3.6tb raid 0 and 1.8tb raid 1. ive changed the ram to some Kingston 2400mghz ram and it seems to run fine and copy without issue. so thought it must be faulty ram. got the ram replaced and getting the same issue. any ideas would be appreciated. some theories i have is the CPU maybe cant run at 3000mghz on the ram side as its a 6100T or faulty CPU/motherboard?

    linuxbuild, you do realize this thread is from 2014? It's doubtful any drive mentioned above is still manufactured today. Your link post in the other (current) thread suffices.

    Hard drive errors, time to get a new one?

    reader50 replied to Perseus Legend's topic in Hard Disk Drives (HDD)

    You can use WikiPedia's key to SMART values. 1) Read Error Rate = vendor specific value. Desired to be "low", but that's all we know. Interpreting it would vary by manufacturer. 7) Seek Error Rate = another vendor specific value. We don't even know if high or low values are desired. 184) End-to-End error = desired to be low. This attribute may predict drive failure. The last one is the only one I'd worry about. On top of that, you're getting recurring disk errors. I'd replace the drive. You're backed up, right? In case the drive fails unexpectedly?

    I would personally stay away from Seagate. I posted on this very forum about a recent issue with three failing hard drives in a row. If you do a little research it seems that Seagate are indeed the hard drive with the highest failing rate.

    There is also a community collected reliability data for desktop drives: https://github.com/linuxhw/SMART
  37. linuxbuild
    Usually it depends on the particular drive model. There is a project to estimate reliability of desktop hard drives: https://github.com/linuxhw/SMART You can search for most reliable model or vendor in the list.

    no one?

    Hi there, Noob question: when you get errors like this, does that mean it is time to get a new hard drive? Raw Read Error Rate: 81/44, Worst: 78 Seek Error Rate: 60/45, Worst: 60 End to End Error Detection Count: 100/99, Worst: 100 For the record, the data comes from a S.M.A.R.T. test I did following some issues with the internal hard drive. Randomly, folders disappeared. After a check disk I've got the folders back, but then it happened again. Luckily, with the check disk I've been able to recover the folders.

    Diamanti's previous platforms have been in the form of on-premise hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) appliances that provide both the HW and SW needed to support containerized applications. With Spektra, Diamanti aims to combine their hardware-accelerated x86 platform with cloud-based infrastructure to provide Kubernetes-as-a-Service, along with built-in disaster recovery of workloads and application data. While Diamanti claims that they will be able to provide a single control pane spanning both their on-premise hardware and public clouds, they have provided no details on what that might look like or how it would work. Someone seems to believe their solution is worthwhile though. On November 7th the company announced the close of a $35 million Series C funding round.

    Since the release of AMD EPYC Rome CPUs, the industry has seen a pretty good adoption. The new CPUs came out and shattered world records and can deliver better performance in a single socket versus its competition’s dual socket setup. A big advantage of the AMD EPYC Rome is that it allows servers to leverage PCIe 4.0 devices. In a world that is leveraging GPUs more and more, this is a huge leg up over the competition. With these Advantages, AMD is pushing its way into the HPC/supercomputing market where the above will be leveraged quickly. AMD Makes Several Announcements At SC19
