Buffer I/O error on device

  • Hello I've just got a new Western Digital 3tb drive (WD30EZRX) for my server. When I connect the drive to my OMV server though I get about 20-30 messages like this. Currently the filesystem is exFat


    [40157.218450] end_request: I/O error, dev sdc, sector 0
    [40157.218538] Buffer I/O error on device sdc, logical block 0
    [40200.504316] INFO: task blockdev:20330 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
    [40200.504406] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.


    I goggled around and everything I saw was telling me these are the signs of a drive failing. So I connected the drive to my windows machine and ran WD Data Lifeguard Diagnostic both quick and extended and both times it came back as having no problems. I could run fsck but I wanted to format the drive to ext4 first. So I guess my question is why does Linux hate my HDD? or better yet what can I do to get it working in OMV without all these issues?
