I tried to search in this thread and couldn't find anything. Is there some kind of limitation or setting I'm missing on the Root Share that is causing me to not see all of the files in a directory when browsed from the root share? See screenshots below, it's the same file path but on one I'm coming through the rootshare and the other I'm browsing directly from the share itself I get the same thing through the unraid file browser It seems like a weird caching issue or something since it looks like I can see three directories now but still not all of them. Is there just some kind of delay in how long it takes for files and directories to show when browsing through the root share? Below are my settings as well

Thank you, really appreciate everyone's help. I'll mark this solved.

So am i correct in assuming that the ones highlighted on the top are on HBA1 and the bottom ones are on HBA2?

Is there a way to see what disks are connected to which HBA through the unRaid console?

I got the HBA upgraded with no issues. I'll look to add the drive back into the array and see if this fixes the issue: Thanks again.

Thank you so much, I'll definitely upgrade the firmware on that HBA. Extended SMART test just completed without error.

Awesome thanks for checking, I'll verify all my connections again and make sure they are good. Can you let me know where determined that from the diagnostics? I'm just curious

I keep having issues with read/write errors on certain disks and it seems to occur during parity checks most of the time. I was getting some UDMA CRC errors on a couple of disks but it doesn't seem to have occurred in a while and not sure if it's related. Disk 3 in specific seems to keep getting disabled even though SMART data looks fine other than the UDMA CRC errors. It does have about 5 years of power on time but other than that I don't see anything out of the ordinary. Disk 1 is the oldest of the array with over 5 years power on time, but has a ton of UDMA CRC errors. I'm not sure where these errors come from, I've checked cable connections and everything seems fine. I have also connected the server to UPS to prevent any unclean shutdowns during a power outage, I've had a couple instances of the server shutting down uncleanly during power outages. I have attached diagnostics for reference. I'm also runnnig an extended SMART test on it as we speak and it's about 50% done. And yes, I'm aware the disks are very full. I've ordered two 14TB drives to add to the array but not sure if I'm just going to have to replace disk 1 and 3 (i would rather not assuming there is no actual issue). And just for more info, I'm running unRaid as a VM in ESXi, passing through two LSI controllers that have all of the disks attached. I posted a thread in support where the mod mentioned virtualizied unraid was unsupported. I'm just hoping someone can review the diag and let me know if there is an issue i'm missing. unraid01-diagnostics-20230501-1333.zip

I have not since I kind of assumed the issue would be unrelated since i'm just passing the LSI controllers down to the VM. Was hoping someone could just look at the diagnostics and see anything out of the ordinary. I can ask in that subforum if it's more appropriate.

I am currently in the process of migrating all of my data from a Windows Server running Drivepool/Snapraid to Unraid. I have done a lot of reading and watching tutorials on best practices for setting up user shares but still need some guidance. I watched Space Invader Ones video on setting up user shares for best performance and in the video he recommends setting up different shares for each type of folder such as Downloads, Movies, TV, etc. I also read TRaSH's guide on setting up users shares to work with Sonarr/Radarr/NZB and they recommend using one share with subfolders. I'm confused as to what is the recommended setup and would like to get it right from the beginning. From my understanding of the cache drive, if I went with TRaSH's guide of setting up one 'data' share, what would be the point of using a cache drive? I also watched Space Invaders video on setting up a root share and it seems like that is also an option to allow for setting up separate user shares while still getting the performance of atomic move/hardlinking. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
