I suspect my HDD is dieing. I had problems with bad super blocks, So I followed this tutorial but the bad blocks kept happening. So I backed up the data, but not before the HDD disappeared. I unplugged the power from the HDD for a few minuets, and it survived long enough to make a back up of the data, but it is back to disappearing again and the only way to get it to show up is disconect the power and reconnect it a few min later. I checked dmesg and here is part of the out put as it failed during rsync to back up the data: [ 1393.001546] ata1.00: link offline, clearing class 1 to NONE [ 1393.017526] ata1: EH complete [ 1393.036265] ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4040000 action 0xe frozen [ 1393.036272] ata1: irq_stat 0x00000040, connection status changed [ 1393.036276] ata1: SError: { CommWake DevExch } [ 1393.036317] ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps [ 1393.036322] ata1: hard resetting link [ 1393.811215] ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) [ 1393.811219] ata1.00: link offline, clearing class 1 to NONE [ 1393.814633] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1393.827167] ata1: EH complete [ 1393.844777] ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4040000 action 0xe frozen [ 1393.844782] ata1: irq_stat 0x00000040, connection status changed [ 1393.844785] ata1: SError: { CommWake DevExch } [ 1393.844792] ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps [ 1393.844796] ata1: hard resetting link [ 1394.620959] ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) [ 1394.620966] ata1.00: link offline, clearing class 1 to NONE [ 1394.636852] ata1: EH complete [ 1394.654212] ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4040000 action 0xe frozen [ 1394.654215] ata1: irq_stat 0x00000040, connection status changed [ 1394.654216] ata1: SError: { CommWake DevExch } [ 1394.654220] ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps [ 1394.654222] ata1: hard resetting link [ 1395.042340] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1395.042363] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1395.042418] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1395.042438] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1395.042476] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1395.042502] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1395.042521] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_find_entry:1209: inode #150994945: comm rsync: reading directory lblock 0 [ 1395.430589] ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) [ 1395.430595] ata1.00: link offline, clearing class 1 to NONE [ 1395.446538] ata1: EH complete [ 1395.463638] ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4040000 action 0xe frozen [ 1395.463641] ata1: irq_stat 0x00000040, connection status changed [ 1395.463642] ata1: SError: { CommWake DevExch } [ 1395.463647] ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps [ 1395.463649] ata1: hard resetting link [ 1396.240275] ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) [ 1396.240281] ata1.00: link offline, clearing class 1 to NONE [ 1396.256215] ata1: EH complete [ 1396.272104] ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4040000 action 0xe frozen [ 1396.272106] ata1: irq_stat 0x00000040, connection status changed [ 1396.272108] ata1: SError: { CommWake DevExch } [ 1396.272112] ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps [ 1396.272113] ata1: hard resetting link [ 1397.045972] ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) [ 1397.045977] ata1.00: link offline, clearing class 1 to NONE [ 1397.061912] ata1: EH complete I think it is pretty certain the HDD is dieing, but am I missing any further testing before submitting a warranty replacement?
