Squid - Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. It looks like I'm back in business. I replaced that cable just to be sure and i'm now rebuilding at 48MB/sect. Again, thanks!

I found this in the Syslog, so I'm assuming ata6 is the Seagate 2GB drive. Yes? ata6.00: ATA-8: ST2000DM001-9YN164, Z1E0ZN20, CC4H, max UDMA/133

Sorry, running 5.0.5 and here's the syslog. If you can identify the actual disk / cable that would be awesome! 2015-02-08_UnRaid_Syslog.txt

OK, I had a bad 4TB Seagate drive so I replaced it yesterday with a new WD 4TB drive, but it is taking forever to rebuild the drive. It's been fluctuating between 500kB/s and 18MB/s. As of now, it's been running for almost 24 hours and is only 13% done. I have attached the current syslog from the running server. Please note that the date/time is off in the server. I checked and what I have posted is what's going on now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 2015-02-08_UnRaid_Syslog.txt

Thanks for everyone's help with this issue. I really appreciate it. Just in case, I did go and get a nice case with great cooling. But, I do tend to agree, I think it was the BIOS update.

Well, I might have some success. I did two things that may have fixed it. One was the BIOS update. The other is hard disk cooling. I noticed yesterday that the temperatures of the HD's during the sync process were climbing higher and higher (up to 52C at one point). The higher the disk in the case the higher the temp. So I opened up the side and the front of the case and the temp went down a couple of degrees. Then I went and put a small window fan in front of the box so the air could blow from front to back of the drives and the temp plummeted. I'ts now been up for over 14 hours which is by far the longest this box has ever run. I think it's time today to go and buy a good case with proper cooling. Does this cooling issue make any sense on why the webGUI wouldn't work yet the console would? It's clear the CPU and computer still worked. Maybe it was the BIOS upgrade?

OK, but I can't see the box from any web browser. I can't access any of the drives, even the flash through the network. I completely lose it after a period of time. I have another box running just fine and has been running for years. The memtest did run overnight. No errors. Also, all the fans are working properly they continue to run at good speed. I just went and updated the BIOS on the MB and started it back up. Can't think of anything else to try.

Sorry, attached is the syslog from the console. Also, I did perform the memtest and no errors. Hardware: Gigabyte GA-A75M-UD2H Motherboard AMD A6-3500 CPU 8GB Ram - (2) 4GB DDR3-1333 4GB SanDisk Cruzer Fit Flash Drive tower_syslog_2014-01-18_Console_after_crash.txt

OK, I reformatted the flash drive again and re-installed 5.0.4 but the only thing I did was assign the drives and start the parity sync. I did nothing else. I'm using the stock gui. So i watched it run to about 30% and went to bed. Now, this morning, nothing. Dead again. However, on the server terminal itself, it's still alive. I used the ifconfig eth0 command to see if the IP was still assigned and it is - 192.168.0.27. Typed that directly into the browser and cannot find (chrome - this webpage is not available). ethtool eth0 shows it is connected to a 1Gb/s connection. So, it doesn't look like a networking problem? I've attached the latest syslog. What should I try next? tower_syslog_2014-01-17.txt

Ok, sorry, but work and the holidays got in the way. After a long break, i finally have some time to look at this problem again. The last post said that I had an add-on that was incompatible or misconfigured. So, what I've done is I have completely re-formatted the flash drive and re-installed UnRaid this time with 5.0.4. I have not added or enabled any add-ons. This install is completely stock. I've mounted the drives and started the parity-sync. After about 10 minutes, the same problem has surfaced. The server has crashed and cannot be accessed either from the browser or directly on the server itself. Also, I've tried two other network cards with the same result. I have attached my latest syslog for anyone's review. tower_syslog_2014-01-16.txt

Does anyone have any ideas on what I might try?

OK, here's the latest full Syslog 2013-11-27_Syslog.txt

I'm running 5.0 (stable release) on a new build (about 1 month old) and have never had it running stable. I have another server that has been running for years without any issues (5.0 as well). I have to turn off the tower to reboot and get everything started again. I'm running 5 drives (1 parity, 1 cache and 3 data). I thought originally I was having a network problem as I cold see the tower for a period of time (usually about 30-60 minutes) I have the IP fixed in both the tower and my router. I now know that the entire system crashes (I've plugged a monitor and keyboard into the tower and I cannot type anything). I've recently disabled the cache disc in the Settings/Share Settings - I still crashed. I recently noticed the last time the system crashed, the system was in the midst of a parity check and it was stuck at 16.5% and the estimated speed was 1MB/s with the estimated time being 5 days. Also, I'm pretty sure the parity check isn't the cause as many times I've stopped the check as I've rebooted and I've still crashed.

Sorry about the hijack. Wasn't aware I should start a new thread. Will do.

OK, I believe that I'm running into the exact same problem. I'm running 5.0 (stable release) on a new build (about 1 month old) and have never had it running stable.

I upgraded to version 5 yesterday and everything went quite well, or so I thought. Yesterday I was able to see the status screen through the webgui at unraid/main.htm - the link I've used for years. Today I tried to get to the server through the webgui and all I got was a blank screen. I rebooted the server and then I could see the status webgui screen again. But, ater 15 minutes or so, it was gone again. Cannot see the webgui. The shares are all there and everything is working. I can copy files to and from, I can play media through my Plex server but I just cannot see the webgui. Any ideas?
