ZFS says drive is faulted, does that always mean it needs replacing?
My weekly `zpool scrub` came back with this: ``` pool: blackhole state: DEGRADED status: One or more devices are faulted in response to persistent errors. Sufficient replicas exist for the pool to continue functioning in a degraded state. action: Replace the faulted device, or use 'zpool clear' to mark the device repaired. scan: scrub repaired 0B in 02:01:59 with 0 errors on Tue Jul 11 04:02:09 2023 config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM blackhole DEGRADED 0 0 0 raidz1-0 DEGRADED 0 0 0 ata-WDC_WD120EDAZ-11F3RA0_5PG8DYKC ONLINE 0 0 0 ata-WDC_WD120EFBX-68B0EN0_5QKJ6M8B ONLINE 0 0 0 ata-WDC_WD120EFBX-68B0EN0_5QKJTT8B FAULTED 51 0 0 too many errors errors: No known data errors ``` I only got the drive 6 months ago, well within WD's 3 year warranty so I opened a support case, but do errors like this basically always mean the drive is its way out or is it possible to have false positives?
