Purchased four new WD Red 10TB from B&H. Ran WD DLGDIAG on them and two turned up bad with "too many bad sectors". Swapped sata cables, swapped power cables, depopulated others drives... and they stayed "too many bad sectors". Still in the return period with B&H, so exchanged them. Two new drives arrived and passed DLGDIAG test. Built ZFS RAID10 array and copied over 12TB data. Two weeks later now and ZFS shows one failed disk. Isolated it to one of the two newest drives and found that at powerup it just starts clicking. Is not even being recognized as a SATA disk. Removed all the other drives and tried with all the other SATA cables and ports. No good on any. $!$#%, I decided not to go the "shuck 12T or 14T drives" because I wanted to make sure I had good NAS drives. Now I need to return this to WD and possibly get a refurbished drive.
This is a new build: Silverstone 800W PS, ASRock x570 Phantom Gaming X, Ryzen 3950, 64GB DDR4-3600, 4x m.2 SSDs. Cool environment with custom hdd heatsinks and good airflow for drives. Running at base clocks.
Is there anything I, or my motherboard could be doing to damage these drives?
