Actually I did verify. I had 3 drives during testing all 3 did it when placed in the top spot.

My fix was farely simple. I flipped the top drive upside down in the drive cage. Put just enough distance to solve the issue.

Hi first time water cooling a PC. Ran great for 3 months. When I flushed the coolant and switched from barbs to compression fittings I ran into an issue iv never seen before. I have 2 Western digital blue drives in raid1. After the fluid change one of the drives kept dropping out. I had Western digital replace the drive. The new drive did same issue. After talking with my local store we thought the raid controller on the motherboard had issues so I replaced it as well . Still same issue. It wasn't until 7 days in to testing that I ran both drives outside of the case that I discovered the pump for my cooling system was creating a magnetic field that was causing the top drive to reset and drop out. I'm wondering if this is something anyone else has seen before or if this is unique. My pump was 1 inch above my drive.
