So SMARTD reported to me this morning that last night (probably recording a show):
CurrentPendingSector bumped up from 0 to 1
and
OfflineUncorrectableSector bumped up from 0 to 1.
I run 2 drives for Myth but NOT in a RAID. So 1/2 of my TV recordings are on one drive.
What's the best method for backing this drive up so myth doesn't complain?
I would imagine it would be something like:
* Shutdown the masterbackend.
* copy all the files from the failing drive to someplace else
* replace with new drive and format/configure as needed
* copy files back to new drive from temp storage
* start up masterbackend
Am I missing anything else?
Thanks,
-Ben
