Fix common problems reported that my syslog was getting full, after doing a tail of the log and then running btrfs scrub it looks like there seems to be an issue with my cache drive(s). I'm not an expert here and wanted to see if this was indeed a failing drive, or if anyone could offer any advice. unraidable-diagnostics-20231010-0857.zip

Please Help! I had my USB drive fail, I have read through the instructions on replacing the drive, however, I have no idea what order the drives were in..... any help is greatly appreciated as I can not afford to lose that much data! I do have an original backup of the drive, however, I know for a fact that I have replaced many of the drives for larger ones.

I'm unsure, I don't have a desktop or hardwired laptop that i use to xfer this amount of data. Those transfers are much smaller and don't take long enough for me to even register if this is an issue over the network. If you believe it may help with troubleshooting I can try to setup a test to determine if thats the case as well

So i'm 100% sure this has been addressed here before, but i've looked through some of the forums and can't find my specific behavior. I've got a VM on unraid where I frequently have some large files sometimes up to 25Gigs. I then transfer the files to an unraid share that uses the cache drive. When the xfer first starts it will be 250-400mbps easy, then after 10-20 seconds we drop all the way down to 5-10mbps. The behavior has been observed using both SMB on windows and linux VM's as well as via FTP on both VM's as well. Some additional information in case it helps! VM stored on unassigned SSD (although ive tried with it stored on the cache drive as well) Cache drive is 1TB NVME ssd Any help or suggestions or whatever is greatly appreciated!
