I had two failing Seagate hard drives. The first drive was a 1.5TB storage drive that I have sent back to Seagate and got a refurb as a return. It shows in the "Server Storage" list as healthy with a green light ... but I think that's worth absolutely zero because so does my 1.5TB System drive. Anyway. The drive that Seagate sent me as a refurb shows a few yellow "Warning Triangles" in Home Sever SMART add-in.
So... my question is... Do all drives have a few triangles? How big of a deal is this? Should I feel confident in using this Refurb drive as a storage drive in the server? Should I contact Seagate for a replacement for their replacement?
I have called HP for a Restore disk. When that shows up, I plan to use a 1TB Western Digital drive (currently in the EX495 as a Storage drive) as the system drive, and send the current system drive back to Seagate for another replacement.
I feel like I'm doing the "Hard Drive Polka."
