I have 2 drives (Intel P5520) missing at this time in the VMD, but I had 4 drives present before and all showed good in the VMD. BMC shows 4 drives in system, online and good, but two drives dropped from the RAID5. (11/08/2024)
7.	I have a SYS-220U-TNR running Windows 2022. I have RAID1 and RAID5 VROC configured using VROC 8.0.0.2752 and have been experiencing issues when backing up servers to this server using Veeam. The backups constantly fail and restores were rarely successful. After working with Veeam support, we have determined that all data on this server is corrupting itself. Using Cofi (a corruption identifier program), corruption is occurring on the NVME raid 1 OS array, NVME raid 5 data array, and a pass through NVME drive. I installed an additional fresh NVME drive in passthrough, and it also identified corruption. I then did a fresh install of Windows server on a new drive and ran Cofi immediately after installation. This also identified corruption. Do you have a solution for it? (11/08/2024)
