Hi,

I run two SSDs in a RAID-1 configuration and I have a swap partition on a
third SSD. Over time, the mismatch_cnt between the two devices grows higher
and higher.


Are both SSD's identical? Do you have discard enabled on the filesystem?

The reason I ask is I have a RAID10 comprised of 3 Intel and 3 Samsung SSD's. The Intel return 0 after TRIM while the Samsung don't, so I _always_ have a massive mismatch_cnt after I run fstrim. I never use a repair operation as it's just going to re-write the already trimmed sectors.


Just a thought.
