I just finished a pre clear on a Seagate 3TB same drive as johnm's post above, I though I would post the values as a comp. thx for a great script Joe. Dave

WOW what a fun night. So I installed my other two new WD 3.0TB EZRX and 2 1yr old NEW 2.0TB EARS and a new 7K2000 (RUNS HOT 40C in no time)) Hitachi and started a preclear on the works. No jumpers on any wd. These are on the boards I/O so I set to ACHI and max speed to sata 6GB/s and the 3.0TB are that. About three in the morning wife wakes me up says she heard a bang could not figure it out. One 3TB stopped reading with an I/O failure and filled my syslog with that error. The second 3TB was not spinning stopped at 50% into the pre-read. I tried spinning it up it worked for about 10 seconds and myMain indicated it had stopped again. Stopped the preclear (and it was writing zero's to the other drives already - UGH1) on all the other drives and shutdown (10 Minutes to save the syslog). I changed the sata6 cables to those two drives and rebooted board would not detect one of the 3TB and I was not taking a chance on the other. I just got them yesterday so I hope I can replace them at the store instead of with WD. Glad they were on sale for 188CDN each. I am glad this is just in testing stage. rgds, Dave

Just finshed the first cycle pre-clear on a new wd 3TB EZRX 6Gb sata drive with no issues. The total process on my new Asus F1A75-V Pro with the new A6-3500 APU took 36 Hours.

forget this - I solved the issue. Regards, Dave

Hey all, I am playing around with LinuxMCE and it has it's own DHCP built in to service it's client on the internal lan. Well my unraid server is on My Windows network inside my dlink routers scope and I was wondering is it possible to install a 2nd nic in the server and configure that nic with a different ip in a different subnet. Basically it would be serving to sub-nets.
