I have recently started to see regular spinners on my T4. It occurs often about once a minute for 5 to 10 seconds but has also occurred less frequently and also for longer durations and on at least one occasion resulted in the T4 rebooting after probably 3 minutes.
We have in recent weeks had several blackouts but the other thing I am thinking may have had an impact is I have set up a plex server on a raspberry pi 4 and linked it to my samba WizT4 share. I have tried switching the raspberry pi off and that doesn't seem to impact it at all so guessing while the timeline kind of co-insides that that is likely just a coincidence. Have also disabled FTP and MiniDLNA however neither of those seem to have had an impact.
I have logged into my T4 by Telnet and noticed that when I type dmesg I get the following 3 lines as part of the output being I am guessing perhaps very relevant (perhaps an issue brought on by the power blackouts. However as it isn't a full linux install unsure how to fix what I believe is HDD corruption.
Code: Select all
EXT4-fs (sda1): error count: 574
EXT4-fs (sda1): initial error at 1671789128: ext4_validate_block_bitmap:375
EXT4-fs (sda1): last error at 1672931805: ext4_ext_find_extent:876: inode 453145
Appreciate any ideas on the spinner and also this possible HDD issue (if unrelated).
