I got a brand new seagate ironwolf 4tb NAS hdd from amazon here, seller is appario. I got delivery this tuesday and Its been plugged in for probably a couple of days, running ext4.
smart scan on gnome disks shows 4880 bad sector, but otherwise ok.
I have already lost some files. I had done rsync on a bunch of files from another hard disks, rearranged partitions on the other hard disks, and while doing rsync back to that, I get checksum errors on a bunch of files.
I will probably go into sea tools to do a full scan.
Whats the best course of action here. can i return it to amazon and ask for a new one. Or do I have to go the RMA with seagate route. I am afraid they might give me a refurbished disk.
