Unrecoverable Media Errors Detected on Drives

How's it going, I'm new to the community, unfortunately it's because of an error from a server that arose unexpectedly.

This is the message

 

Warning: Unrecoverable Media Errors Detected on Drives during previous Rebuild or Background Surface Analysis (ARM) scan. Errors will be fixed automatically when the sector(s) are overwritten. Backup and Restore are recommended

 

I have a picture of the complete error

Re: Unrecoverable Media Errors Detected on Drives

Hello,

You may try the above mentioned firmware update suggestions as well.

It appears, that the RAID array may be broken. Two drives have been detected in slots 5 and 7 and hence the logical drive is disabled. You may either contiue with the logical drive disabled or accept data loss and include the drives so detected and continue.

In slot 8, the drive has failed and needs to be replaced.

Ensure that there is complete backup before performing any activity so that in an eventuality, you may restore the data after re-configuring the server.

Regards,
