In his latest Valuable News – 2024/05/27 post, vermaden identifies the Solid-State Drive Tester web site. It dosuments metrics for a wide range of SSD, and USB storage devices. Definitely worth bookmarking.

Hi all, I have been grappling with a problem with my ZFS array for the last year or so, and it has reached a point now where I have run out of ideas of what may be wrong, so posting in the hope someone has some advice. I have a machine with 14 drives, configured like so: 4x 10TB HDD in ZFS...

I have two SSDs, mirror'd boot disks. They are both connected to the motherboard internal SATA headers (of which there are eight). This is how they identify at boot: Nov 29 11:55:21 sherman kernel: ahci0: <AMD KERNCZ AHCI SATA controller> mem 0xfc600000-0xfc6007ff irq 29 at device 0.0 on pci7...

I have a SATA 2.5" SSD connected to the onboard SATA connectors with ZFS-on-root FreeBSD installed. There are 9 hard disks connected: 8 via an LSI PCI-E card and one connected via SATA to the onboard SATA connector. For some reason FreeBSD boots off of the SSD but when setting up the disks it...

My newly built server boots of a ZFS SSD mirror (ada0 and ada1 are identical): Dec 30 15:08:02 sherman kernel: ada0 at ahcich0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 Dec 30 15:08:02 sherman kernel: ada0: <CT250MX500SSD1 M3CR023> ACS-3 ATA SATA 3.x device Dec 30 15:08:02 sherman kernel: ada0: Serial Number...

Hi folks, This is my last resource, hope that someone can help me. I bought a new Samsung EVO 860 M.2 SATA to my home server. Everything looked good at the first boot on Windows, and tests with CrystalDiskInfo and CrystalDiskMark were all fine. The problems started when I tried to do an FreeBSD...

Hi, Currently for my home setup, I have a self-built system made out of a Fujitsu D3417-B1 motherboard fitted with a i3-6100 CPU (really happy with that combo, low energy and quite a lot of processing power), 16GB of ECC memory, and at this moment 8 2TB drives (SAS1068E card) in a ZFS raidz1...

I have had on my MARVELL 88SE9230 card the following: Oct 18 05:14:54 constance kernel: (ada5:ahcich7:0:0:0): Error 5, Periph was invalidated Oct 18 05:14:54 constance kernel: (ada5:ahcich7:0:0:0): READ_FPDMA_QUEUED. ACB: 60 08 c8 3e ae 40 07 01 00 00 00 00 Oct 18 05:14:54 constance kernel...

Hi All, I have two disks on my system: ada0 at ata2 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 ada0: <SanDisk SDSSDHP128G X2306RL> ATA8-ACS SATA 3.x device ada0: Serial Number 133536406390 ada0: 300.000MB/s transfers (SATA 2.x, UDMA5, PIO 512bytes) ada0: 122104MB (250069680 512 byte sectors) ada1 at ata3 bus...

Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) has been around for a few years, but there hasn't been much news about them. There aren't that many consumer products out for it either. I believe a SAS interface can run both Serial SCSI and SATA harddisks through the same type of cable. However, a SATA interface is...

Hello, we use a Supermicro server running FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE to provide iSCSI devices based on zvol's for VMware. The server has one zpool of 6 vdev raidz2 with 6 SATA disks in each, the server has HBA LSI 9300-8i installed. Periodically, the problem arises that the pool goes into DEGRADED...

I set a user and master password on a SATA disk drive and I can not unlock it since. After setting the pw, I've frozen the drive with camcontrol security -f Any idea? I can issue camcontrol inquiry successfully, but most other camcontrol commands fail. Especially, I can not unlock the drive...

I have two allegedly identical SanDisk SATA 3 SSD drives connected to my SATA 2 motherboard as a ZFS mirror. Until yesterday both these drives were happily operating in SATA2 mode at 300MB/s but now one of the drives (ada0) is only running in SATA 1 mode at 150MB/s. I've swapped the drive...

Dear FreeBSD users, Recently, I was working towards setting up a new zpool at work with freshly salvaged Western Digital and Seagate SATA hard drives (all 500 GB). However, FreeBSD 11.0-RC2 detects the drives as elements of bigger raid arrays (r0 and r1) in the arrangement 2x 500 GB + 2x 500...

G'day all. I've solved this somewhat, but thought I'd bring it up here and see what comes of it. Been using FreeBSD for years on my home server, now wanted to test it out on my desktop machine. Attempted to install 10.3-STABLE and 11-CURRENT but neither detected my Samsung 850 EVO SSD. Doesn't...

How can I grab the hard drive serial number in C on a machine running FreeBSD? The hard drive in question is an mSATA SSD. Specifically the TS256GMSA370. In my searching I found the following on this forum: 9548 I receive the error 'Inappropriate ioctl for device' when running the following...
