Hello, I am trying to preclear 4 new 16TB Seagate EXOS x16 drives. The read speeds averaged 100 MB/s, but the write speed is a horrible 6 MB/s. I have verified that write-caching is enabled for all drives. Ideas?

I find myself in the position of needing to upgrade my hardware to a new chassis. I have been looking hard at 45 Drives, but they are spendy. I've always loved the look of the XServe design, and it's possible to purchase SEVERAL of them for the price of one empty Storinator case. I realize that it would take 10U (3 XServe RAIDS + 1 XServe) to equal the capacity of a 4U Storinator. But the aesthetics are are a different story. I notice cooling is a concern, but that seems to depend on fan placement and channeling. But my question is, is it worth spending the time + money to buy some of these old girls and rip her guts out? Do all the status indicators still work for those of you who have embarked on this journey? Any other gotchas I should consider? Thanks!

Yes, a few of us contributed to a script over the years. Started with Starcat, then me, then dstroot, then Guzzi. Don't know where that falls in line with this one, time wise. Thread is here, and in my signature.

Out of all of my pics, I really didn't want you to use the inside pic of my build. It's so sloppy. I just posted that to answer Peter's question about why I put the enclosures "upside down". I would much prefer you use the first pic I posted.

Errr... aren't those drive cages upside down? The drives don't care. Also, I needed the fans in the rear to be up above the motherboard after I added a shroud increasing the size of the fans from 70 to 80mm, so this was the only solution that worked geometrically. It has the added benefit of keeping the exhaust air from the drives above the motherboard and CPU, and inline with the exhaust fan in the case.

Since the inside of my server isn't gorgeous, I elected to use only outside pics:

Well, first of all, CONGRATULATIONS! Those little bundles of joy really change your life and your perspective. I don't have the experience to compile it from scratch, so I hobbled together what I could get from the internet. I used one of Alien's packages, and sourced the other dependencies through tracing errors. But it does work on 5.0 rc3. I used the following code to get it working. I know I could build a .plg file and dump it in the extra directory, but I just haven't taken the time to do it. Plus, since this version still doesn't do what I need, I'm not finished yet. wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/patches/packages/freetype-2.4.8-i486-1_slack13.1.txz wget http://carroll.cac.psu.edu/pub/linux/distributions/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/x/fontconfig-2.8.0-i486-1.txz wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/l/libogg-1.1.4-i486-1.txz wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/l/libsamplerate-0.1.7-i486-1.txz wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/l/libtheora-1.1.1-i486-1.txz wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/l/libvorbis-1.2.3-i486-1.txz wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.37/slackware/l/zlib-1.2.5-i486-4.txz wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/l/glib-1.2.10-i486-3.txz wget http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.37/slackware/d/gcc-g++-4.5.2-i486-2.txz wget http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/handbrake/pkg/13.37/handbrake-0.9.6-i486-1alien.tgz upgradepkg --install-new freetype-2.4.8-i486-1_slack13.1.txz upgradepkg --install-new fontconfig-2.8.0-i486-1.txz upgradepkg --install-new libogg-1.1.4-i486-1.txz upgradepkg --install-new libsamplerate-0.1.7-i486-1.txz upgradepkg --install-new libtheora-1.1.1-i486-1.txz upgradepkg --install-new libvorbis-1.2.3-i486-1.txz upgradepkg --install-new zlib-1.2.5-i486-4.txz upgradepkg --install-new glib-1.2.10-i486-3.txz upgradepkg --install-new gcc-g++-4.5.2-i486-2.txz upgradepkg --install-new handbrake-0.9.6-i486-1alien.tgz

Through a lot of trial and error I do have HandBrakeCLI 0.9.6 running. However, I discovered that ripping PGS subtitles from Blu-Ray sources doesn't work unless running one of the recent nightly builds.

I know this is an old thread, but I was curious if anyone had compiled the newest HandbrakeCLI 0.9.6 for unRAID? If not, I could try to compile it myself following the directions in the beginning of this thread, unless one of the Linux gurus has a different approach. I'm having trouble with 0.9.5 not reading embedded subtitles in mounted blu-ray .iso files, and thought 0.9.6 might fix the issue. EDIT: Well, I just realized I would need another machine to use as a build platform, and I don't have access to such resources. Is there anyone who has a 5.x series build environment running to compile unRAID packages?

I have used 1.12 to preclear 5 3TB drives and have had no problems. Is it safe to assume that even if 1.12 was not correct, that unRAID properly formatted the drives anyway? Not sure - but it may have just been fixing this ... http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=4068.msg140029#msg140029 Yeah I read that post, but wasn't sure if it was the same issue. I encountered the same error with -t, but assumed it was just a glitch since I had just finished preclearing.

So I think I've looked everywhere for a more thorough explanation, but I can't seem to find it. What does version 1.13 fix about the GPT partitions? The notes just say... I have used 1.12 to preclear 5 3TB drives and have had no problems. Is it safe to assume that even if 1.12 was not correct, that unRAID properly formatted the drives anyway?

So, what was the verdict on this? What did your drive temps look like?

!!! +!

The trick would be the MIR would have to go through a UK proxy. I would imagine shipping a group of them in some kind of bulk shipment would help eliminate some of the cost. Maybe save $75 - $100 after it's all said and done?
