    Having no replay system should be a big help for the lagspikes

    Seriously who actually uses it

    ok but it won't be back for at least 2 weeks, that is the minimum time i need to confirm if it was causing the fuck ups

    I bet its just the samsung drive. Replace it problem solved.

    That's obviously a last resort, unless you want to go and do it

    And if it were the disk's fault, it would mean that both disks are faulty and the SMART stats are completely wrong

    The first major step would be to change filesystem - something I am strongly considering doing today given I have KVM access.

    Just need to bring the backup fully up to date

    I'd never fully rely on SMART tbh. It can never know the mechanical health.

    By the fact that both disks have been spinning for 14k hours 24/7 with no fatal issues, I'd say they are both mechanically sound

    Still can never be sure.

    I would put money on the fact that it's vibration causing all the disk issues

    The amount of vibration produced by a bank of 6 fans and a cpu fan all spinning at 6000+rpm is fucking unbelievable.

    I don't think there is any other explanation for both F3's suffering 'bad' sectors that magically fix themselves without reallocation

    Time to invest in an enterprise grade hard disk I think, just need to find someone prepared to fit it. Decided no need for RAID, daily backups are more than adequate

    I guess might as well take advantage of the one good thing the Samsung F3's offer - AAM. Hopefully a moderate setting (as opposed to off entirely) will slow the disks down a bit and reduce vibration error

    Might be a good idea to get some anivibration screws/rubberthings for the drives and fans. Might help a bit and their cheap

    Case fans are all mounted with rubber things

    CPU fan is probably irrelevant

    Ironically the two F3's are mounted with anti-vibration screws and the absolutely perfect 3TB seagate is not.

    So yeah, the plan is as follows:

    - Operate with replays disabled and AAM enabled
    - If after 2 weeks nothing goes wrong, enable replays again
    - If something goes wrong within this time, max out AAM
    - If something goes wrong again following max AAM, buy constellation ES disk (or similar) and find someone willing to go to the datacentre and replace the worse F3

    Try get some members to chip in on new drives? Should get the WD enterprise ones.

    That's the plan but not rushing into it if I don't need to. Avoiding WD however, due to their general policy of putting minimum effort into every tier (greens fail, blues are shit, blacks can barely raid, reds 5400rpm, etc)
