Potential E-Series system performance degradation during SSD internal NAND recovery
Applies to
All E-Series SANtricity OS releases
Drive Models: PX02*******, PX04****** and PX05******
Drive Firmware: MS00 and MS01
Issue
Users may experience performance degradation during internal die (NAND) recovery. An SSD drive is composed of many dies (NANDs) that are equal in size. The size of a die (NAND) may vary depending on the drive model.
Drive returned check condition with SENSE data of 1/18/0 and/or 1/18/ff indicate the drive is undergoing an internal recovery (reconstruction) of a die. The drive returned check conditions can be found in the E-Series system event log:
