ERROR: failed to repair root items: Input/output error

I have a laptop root hard drive (Samsung SSD 850 EVO 1TB), which is within warranty. I can't mount it read-write ("no rw mounting after error"). The data are not really critical (I will overcome the shock of losing them within a couple of days). Btrfs check --repair throws an error: sudo btrfs

Thank you everybody for your support, care, cheerful comments and understandable criticism. I am in the process of backing up every file. Could you please answer two questions?: 1. I am testing various files and all seem readable. Is there a way to list every file that resides on a particular

Hello everybody, I have a Raid-1 btrfs filesystem with 5 devices and I was running btrfs scrub once a week. Unfortunately, one disk (4TB) failed. I added two new (6TB each) disks in the array and now I get: # btrfs filesystem df /mnt/mountpoint Data, RAID1: total=6.58TiB, used=6.57TiB System,

Thank you very much for your help. I do not have any recovery backup and I need these data :( Before my problems begun I was running btrfs-scrub in a weekly basis and I only got 17 uncorrectable errors for this array, concerning files that I do not care of, so I ignored them. I clearly should

Second, SMART is only saying its internal test is good. The errors are related to data transfer, so that implicates the enclosure (bridge chipset or electronics), the cable, or the controller interface. Actually it could also be a flaky controller or RAM on the drive itself too which I don't

Thank you very much for your advice. It worked! I verified that the superblocks 1 and 2 had similar information with btrfs-show-super -i 1 /dev/sdc1 (and -i 2) and then with crossed fingers: btrfs-select-super -s 2 /dev/sdc1 which restored my btrfs filesystem. Then I runned scrub. For future

Hi everybody! Btrfs filesystem could not be mounted because /dev/sdc1 had unreadable sectors. It is/was a single filesystem (not raid1 or raid0) over /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdc1. I wrote the unreadable sectors with hdparm but filesystem still cannot be mounted (sectors were too early perhaps). What
