Hello
I'm working for a Fortinet gold partner
We are encountering many problems with devices ( 60D, 200D, 1500D, etc )
Flash drives are continuously defective after a few monthes ( weeks sometime )
EXT3-fs error (device sd(8,17)): ext3_get_inode_loc: unable to read inode block - inode=106581, block=425991
EXT3-fs error (device sd(8,17)) in ext3_reserve_inode_write: IO failure
EXT3-fs error (device sd(8,17)) in ext3_orphan_add: IO failure
Fortinet explained us that we are the only with these problems
Could you please tell us if you are facing the same ?
Thanks
NSE6

I'm manageing around 40+ Fortigates, many of them small (60C, 80C, 60D, 70D, 90D), and up to 1500D. Only the small FGTs die from flash cancer, and many more than, say, 3-4 years ago. Usually, I bring them back to life for the first time (by formatting and reloading firmware and config) but then they fail some time later again, and that's time for an RMA.
Lo and behold, of course all FGTs now run with the minimal logging or no local logging at all. Some 80Cs log into memory, that's sufficient for small installations.
we are using more than 100 devices
aold models were not affected
it started with D series
We are continuously facing this problem ( 2 x 200D + 1 x 60D since last week )
Some of our clients are Hospitals, banks, it is really hard to explain them that fortinet is providing quality products ...

Very much agree, its not just you, and its late model C, various model D. Of course, they also always want a HQIP test first, even though the boot console capture is pretty much stating the obvious.
We are convinced they switched flash provider for both, and are now facing a 'Bulging Capacitor' nightmare (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague)
