OP is using SAS, but it’s not too far from SATA.
Comment on 🏳️(TrueNAS) Is my drive dying and should be replaced?🏳️

Good catch. I don’t usually see SAS as /dev/sd* so I assumed. Same basic cables, though *usually better made.

Had this issue once, 2 drives kept not initializing during boot, rebooting a few times got them to register but showed drive errors. I thought either the drives or my SAS card was dying. Fully reseating the connectors fixed it and haven’t had an issue since.
