I’ve turned on my MBLD (spanning maximum capacity) after quite some time only to find ‘status: failed’. Disk A appears to have problems. So I’ve logged in via SSH and check the SMART values (see below). After a reboot of the system the error message on the GUI was gone but as you can imagine I’m a little skeptical whether I can keep using the drives. Any suggestions?
