This is W8.1 Pro, with six 4T drives in the media pool. Two weeks ago, Scanner had finished scanning all drives and pronounced them healthy. Last week one day I didn't have any content in my media directory and found that all the drives were missing. Not just offline, but not even showing up in the Windows Disk Manager. Scanner was unresponsive.
I rebooted the machine and all media drives re-appeared. A couple of minutes later I started the UI to Scanner and noticed on one drive it had found a bad (512b) sector, and as of the reboot had scanned past it about 4 (tiny) blocks. About that time I received an email from Scanner:
StableBit Scanner Unreadable Sectors Found on "PMSERVER".One or more disks are damaged and have data on them that is unreadable:
ST4000DM000-1F2168 ATA Device - 512 B unreadable (1 sectors)
Model: ST4000DM000-1F2168
Serial number: W300M44F
Case: Server Tower
Bay: 2-1
You are receiving this message because you have set up email notifications to be sent to this address from the StableBit Scanner.
But it was dated as of the reboot, not when this event occurred several days prior. During that time, Scanner was (apparently) locked up and media drives were not available.
Looking at the Windows Event Viewer, there were several scanner error reports referenced, which I have attached. Maybe they'll help make some sense of this.
