Thank you very much! This is a very useful docker. Speeds have increased dramatically when the network is taken out of the equation! Thanks again saarg!

I'm loving this thread! Keep up the progress posts!

I noticed this too when I upgraded. So what I did to resolve this was to copy the green-blink.gif to green-blink0.gif as a temporary fix. cp /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/webGui/images/green-blink.gif /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/webGui/images/green-blink0.gif Encountered this as well, but did not notice it before...? Been running it for a few days now. I swear i've seen green blinking led's before... and now they're gone. Added issue on github. I saw this when I first installed the new webGui, so I cleared my browser cache, rebooted the server, and the blinking light came back.... very weird!

No Problem! My fault for not reading your updated version info! . Mostly I wanted to post so you could update the script in your previous post. If you don't have it handy, I can attach it to my post

Hi Guzzi, Thanks for posting that updated fan control script! I was using the one where you had to state how many drives you had and I much prefer not needing to maintain it when I make changes to my array. One small oversight: The version info of the script states that you removed -d ata in the smartctl command, but in the version you attached, it was still in place (line 201). I switched the line to reflect the updated code, and now I no longer get "integer expression expected" errors (and a failure to read the temp of those drives) on the drives attached to my m1015s It took me an embarrassing amount of time to figure out the problem (That'll teach me to not read the version info!!), so in case anyone else is also getting the error on a m1015 controller using this script (or likely other sas controllers as well), that is the solution!

CANADA Also, another deal site for Canada is the new Canada Post shopper. I used to use shopbot.ca exclusively, but lately the CP has been giving me better results CanadaPost Shopper

+1. AND, they have the best price matching system I've seen. You see a better price somewhere else? Click the price match button when it's in your NCIX cart. Provide price and url, they update the price they charge you immediately in your cart. Done. I've never been refused a pricematch, but I assume if they do, they let you know before they charge your card.... They probably hate nickel and dimers, but whenever I buy parts, I scour the web for the best deals, then buy everything from NCIX. Even if it's just a couple of bucks per part, it ends up paying at the very least for shipping, and sometimes the savings are significant... [EDIT] For Clarity

Hi Joe, Thanks for the quick response! In answer to your queries: Yup. Regular non-hot-swap 4in3s hmmm... Good question. Not entirely sure. I swapped sata cable and port, but not sure about power supply cable. I'll try that next. As far as the power supply itself, it's a Corsair 750watt... Nope. I bought 2 at once at first. One was fine, second was bad. Returned for new one. It is also misbehaving...
