Hello, Kernel: 6.12.73 Distribution: Debian Stable Trixie There are long outstanding issues with these WD Red SN700 4TiB drives with an ASUS FlahsStor Gen1. I have 16 drives on two x8 Sonnet boards and the same issue is occurring across two different platforms. Are these drives completely defective when used in a software raid configuration? Does anyone have a specific kernel parameter to make these drives work without dropping off the bus— or is it time to retire/replace these drives? On various forums the below parameters had been tested previously and did not help. [Sun Mar 1 00:30:58 2026] nvme nvme0: controller is down; will reset: CSTS=0xffffffff, PCI_STATUS=0xffff [Sun Mar 1 00:30:58 2026] nvme nvme0: Does your device have a faulty power saving mode enabled?
