Please run the following commands and post the console session: $ cat /etc/debian_version $ uname -a Boot the Debian 9 or 10 installer, run the following commands, and post the console session: # smartctl -i /dev/sda # smartctl -i /dev/sdb # smartctl -i /dev/sdc # smartctl -i /dev/sdd Mark your cables with labels and serial numbers, and keep track of your patching configurations. The suggestions of re-patching and checking dmesg are valid. I would connect the system drive to each port in turn, bootint the installer rescue shell, checking, booting the system drive, checking, and comparing results. I would then put the system drive on the first port and try the problem drive on the remaining ports, both with the installer rescue shell and with your system drive. Have you checked your drives recently using the manufacturer diagnostics utility? David
