I have a Lenovo ThinkCentre M900 Tiny (10FL) which has been working fine. Recently, I had an HDD failure, and replaced it with an SSD. This time, I decided to go with ZFS (single drive, kinda pointless, but I get scrubbing). Every once in a while, I’m getting errors while scrubbing. It’s always 1-2 read or write errors. And it never reappears if I clear the error and run another scrub.

The data isn’t important, and it’s backed up, so I’m not too worried about it. But, the symptoms make me think that it’s an issue of the SATA port inside? Is it possible to replace the SATA port inside this device. I wasn’t able to find anything like part number etc. online and it looks like I need to replace the whole board. Any help is appreciated.

  • The last disk (an HDD) failed (it’s failing outside too, so not just due to this, but this may have contributed). I don’t have any more drives to test this out. And this happens once every month or so, so it’s pretty hard to test it by putting this SSD inside another device.
