I posted a few months ago here, thinking my drives were failing.
The symptom: drives disappear from my Proxmox server. I have a 8x 2.5" hot swap enclosure (fits in 2 5.25" front bays). When the drive disappears, it seems random which ones do. If I reboot, some drives are still missing, even when I query the SAS adapter (LSI2008) with sas2ircu.
What I tried, and what makes me think it's not the drives, is I pulled out a couple drives out for a minute or so while the system was running. I then pushed them back in and the drives were recognized again. I did this for all the missing drives until they all showed back up.
My question: does this sound like a controller issue or an enclosure issue?
My Hardware:
* SAS: IBM M1015 flashed to LSI2008
* SAS Cables: Monoprice 0.75m 30AWG Internal Mini SAS 36-Pin Male with Latch to 7-Pin Female Forward Breakout Cable (new)
* Hot Swap Bay: AMS DS-528SSBA Anti-Vibration 8x2.5" SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module
