ZFS error vs smartctl, disk need to be replaced?
  • I would expect it to be a cable issue. I had long after market power cables on a consumer (Corsair) PSU which caused a voltage drop of about 1V which was enough to cause errors.

    Dodgy SATA/SAS cables can also cause it.

    The SAS controller overheating can also do it. I had them again when I didn't have a fan on my LSI card.

  • Looking for a good das box, what should I get?
  • Some of them don't pass SMART data, or worse, pass the same data for all drives. Check the Amazon/external reviews.

    I just bought a QNAP TL-D800C that looks pretty good and was on a BF sale.

  • What adapters/cables do I need to complete this build with 20 internal drives and 11 external drives?
  • I would get a proper server case with a backplane. It'll save so many headaches with cable management, and they distribute power a lot more safely than running many long cables would.

    My system has been a lot more stable since I started using a hot swap backplane and server PSU. Before that I would lose a drive every 3-6 months. It's also a lot quieter and the drives run cooler.
