What bothers me is that the problem appeared almost a week after creating the RAID and copying about 700GB backup of data to it. I was going to put it into production and following a soft reset the server lost the two of the four SATA RAID5 disks flashing them amber and showing them as foreign.After adding them back they rebuild and work OK. As many times as I shut it down the server there is no problem only with soft reset.The other think is that is running windows server 2016.

C3901254 NOT CERTIFIED BY DELL REPLACED THEM WITH DELL ONES.
Although same model works perfectly on another R610 in a RAID1

Every backplane and controller is different. The drive for which you provided a part number is a horrible choice for a server.

Thank you for the reply.Unfortunately someone was thinking of saving a few €s without asking.Now he is trying to get rid of these drives
