A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and device that assists with proactive prediction of disk failure in a RAID group includes obtaining performance data for a plurality of storage drives. The obtained performance data is compared with a stored classification data to predict one or more storage drives of the plurality of storage drives failing within a time period. The data present in the one or more storage drives predicted to fail based on the comparison is copied on to one or more secondary storage drives. A notification including a list of the one or more storage drives predicted to fail is sent upon the copying the data on to the one or more secondary storage drives.

Methods for proactive prediction of disk failure in a RAID group and devices thereof

A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and device that assists with identifying failure of a storage disk includes obtaining performance data and a threshold value associated with each of the obtained performance data for a plurality of storage disks. Next, the obtained performance data is compared with the corresponding threshold value associated with each of the obtained performance data to determine for one or more initial failures in the plurality of storage disks. Next, one or more operational test cases are executed on each of the determined one or more initial failures in the plurality of storage disks to determine for one or more false positives in the determined one or more initial failures in the plurality of storage disks. A notification is sent based on the determination of the one or more false positives.
