Did I just brick my SAS drive?

I was trying to make a pool with the other 5 drives and this one kept giving errors. As a completer beginner I turned to gpt.....

What can I do? Is that drive bricked for good?

Don't clown on me, I understand my mistake in running shell scripts from Ai...

EMPTY DRIVES NO DATA

The initial error was:

Edit: sde and SDA are the same drive, name just changed for some reason And also I know it was 100% my fault and preventable ๐Ÿ˜ž

**Edit: ** from LM22, output of sudo sg_format -vv /dev/sda (broken link)

BIG EDIT:

For people that can help (btw, thx a lot), some more relevant info:

Exact drive model: SEAGATE ST4000NM0023 XMGG

HBA model and firmware: lspci | grep -i raid 00:17.0 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation SATA Controller [RAID mode] Its an LSI card Bought it here

Kernel version / distro: I was using Truenas when I formatted it. Now trouble shooting on other PC got (6.8.0-38-generic), Linux Mint 22

Whether the controller supports DIF/DIX (T10 PI): output of lspci -vv (broken link)

Whether other identical drives still work in the same slot/cable: yes all the other 5 drives worked when i set up a RAIDZ2 and a couple of them are exact same model of HDD

COMMANDS This is what I got for each command: (broken link)

The only useful thing I've found so good for is quickly scrubbing though shops. They are really good at looking at hundreds of urls and reviewing the content and then vomiting up the results

When looking for a laptop it was invaluable.

Those sub reddits that are basically nothing but people asking for laptop recommendations basically could just be replaced with a LLM.

AI is after all the perfect example of wisdom of the masses. Aka 80% accurate 80% of the time.

Seriously trying to find a 18 inch hdr laptop with a AMD CPU and replaceable ram that did not contain a laundry list of parts that I know have no driver support on Linux... Is a pain in the ass. Cause half the time AMD laptops arnt advertised at fucking all and sit on some random page you have to know just exists.

Even using newegg filters couldn't find the fucking laptop cause of mislabeling. But the AI found it.

Fucking thing is like a web crawler on crack.
