Proxmox 7.4-3
HW everything new

Code:
MB: asus rog strix x570-e gaming wifi ii bios
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X
Ram: 2x Kingston FURY 32 GB KIT DDR4 3200 MHz CL16 Beast Black
Power supply: Seasonic Focus Plus 550 Platinum
Cooler: Scythe Ninja 5 (SCNJ-5000)
System disk raid0: 2x WD Red SN700 1TB M.2 2280 PCI-E x4
Data HDD: 4x HDD Toshiba Enterprise Capacity MG09 18TB 512e


I send TS files to RAIDZ disks from the DVB server (aprox 16 channels). I often see these lines in syslog.

Code:
smartd[2332]: Device: /dev/sda [SAT], CHECK POWER STATUS spins up disk (0x80 -> 0xff)

smartd[2332]: Device: /dev/sdb [SAT], CHECK POWER STATUS spins up disk (0x80 -> 0xff)

smartd[2332]: Device: /dev/sdc [SAT], CHECK POWER STATUS spins up disk (0x80 -> 0xff)

smartd[2332]: Device: /dev/sdd [SAT], CHECK POWER STATUS spins up disk (0x80 -> 0xff)

Maybe these lines are fine, but LXC stops working and then proxmox also crashes. I don't understand such behavior.
 
I'd check if the disks are spun down to save power. E.g. what kind of power management is active.
 
If I use RAIDZ, I assume that all disks must be spinning all the time. Or am I wrong ?
