If you steadily write to the array is there one drive that doesn't blink?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 6:44 PM, Brian W. Neu <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ale@advancedopen.com">ale@advancedopen.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

That will work if I fail it out of the array, reformat it and then do
your recursive find. Or even a format with a -c for bad blocks.<br>
<br>
I was hoping to just use some hardware ninja magic to get it to put
it's hand in the air.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>

have
to remove a SATA drive with some SMART errors . . . but finding<br>
it isn't exactly easy as it's part of a RAID in an internal 5-in-3<br>
enclosure.<br>
<br>
Does anyone know of a way to make it blink?<br>
<br>
I guess I could fail it and it would be the only one not blinking, but I<br>
was hoping to find an answer to this anyway.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
