  1. I recently dismantled my servers and no longer need these. Both are Kingston Data Traveler 2.0 with 16Gb. Looking to sell each for $60 plus shipping within the US. If anyone wants to buy both, I am open to private offers. Paypal accepted. Thanks!
  2. I am not looking to make profit and obviously I cannot regain the money I paid for the key. It has been sitting in my drawer for about a year and I would be happy if I can get part of what I paid. I did look through recent sold keys on this forum and there were anywhere from 70-80 bucks, depending on the USB size plus shipping. Thanks for your concern.
  3. I was clearing my drawers and found this key that I haven't used at all. It comes on Kingston Data Traveller 16GB stick. Selling for $80 shipped within US only! Thanks.
  4. All my drives showed green ball, even though disk1 had "Unformatted" message. I'm glad the reiserfsck worked. Not sure if i had formatted disk1 that it would have been rebuilt from the parity. Lesson learnt.
  5. I ran reiserfsck --rebuild-tree -S /dev/md1 again. It took few hours (overnight), but then i was able to mount disk1 again and all my movies were intact. Also there were some of my TV shows in the lost+found folder. Phew, i can breath now. I guess this is a lesson, dont ever run that command and cut it off before it finish . Thank you all for the responses.
  6. I stopped the reiserfsck after 2 min. Should I start it again and let it finish?
  7. Since disk1 shows as unformatted now, if I format it would it get rebuilt from the parity? I feel that I'm really screwed and don't want to make things any worse.
  8. I can't believe this is happening!! So my disk1 got full 100% due to incorrect settings or whatever. So i manually moved some stuff around and moved my TV shows to disk 4 to free some space on disk1. Little while later my TV Shows folder showed empty, and then eventually disappeared completely. So all my seasons are gone. Then I started reading some posts for undelete, in case I messed up something, which i dont think I did. Accorging to this thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=5087.msg47070#msg47070 I ran umount /dev/md1 and reiserfsck --rebuild-tree -S /dev/md1. It only ran for couple minutes and I stopped it. Then I rebooted my server as the drive didnt want to re-mount with this command mount /dev/md1 /mnt/disk1. After reboot my disk1 shows as unformatted and I am about to have a heart attack. 1Tb of movies and TV shows that I have been collecting for years are gone!! Please help if there is anything I can do to save my data! Why is disk1 showing unformatted after the reiserfsck --rebuild-tree -S /dev/md1. HELP HELP :'( :'( :'( :'(
  9. Thank you all, great pointers. I think I have my split levels set fine and I can see my Media folders the way i want, combined at level 2. I guess my misunderstanding is that with the Fill-up setting each drive will get filled gradually as I add stuff, until it reaches the min free space setting. I guess I will manually move some of the data from disk 1 to disk 3 and free up some space that way.
  10. Hi all, Im realatively new to unRAID. I have a share called Media and sits on 5 hard drives. I want to fill each disk gradually as I keep adding stuff, instead of the high-water setting. I just want to keep each of my movies and stuff contained rather than split on multiple disks. So I have set the share to use Fill up and set min free space 50Gb. I just noticed that my first disk has filled 100% and there is only 500mb free left out of 1TB. Is the min free space setting assumed for all drives total or can it be set for individual drives? Also if I want to switch back to High-water, would the data get re-distributed and free some space on disk 1? I read that it is not good to fill the disk more than 90%. Thanks for any guidance.
  11. I just set up my unRAID rig last night and so far I am very impressed. I was able to install few plugins including Mysql which I use to sync my XBMC library and also Plex, which is totally new to me. My set up is 1TB Parity drive, 1TB + 4x750Gb drives for storage, and then I added a 160Gb laptop drive for cache. I am actually confused with the way the cache drive works. So... Question 1: I had unclean shutdown and my parity re-check is going right now, showing estimated speed 22.3 MB/sec. I believe it was the same before I added the cache drive so I don't see any gains I think. Is that normal and what is the point of having the cache drive? Question 2: Currently I have Mysql and Plex installed in /mnt/cache/unRAID_Apps/ folder. I am concerned because Plex has been scanning my library all day and its not even half-way done with it. Would that data that is currently on the cache drive be moved on one of the disks later, or I need to put the plugins to store on a disk, not the cache? I am trying to avoid going through that massive scan again and store the library in a permanent location. Question 3: Should I install any plugins on the cache drive directly or put on one of the disks and set the share to use cache? Question 4: Is there a way for unRAID to automatically stop Mysql, Plex and Dropbox before shutdown/reboot? Otherwise the system hangs and rarely shuts down the way it should. Thanks a bunch for shedding some light to a newbie
  12. I am a newbie and literally loaded UNRAID Pro last night night. I managed to install SimpleFeatures and I am trying to install MySQL but no luck so far. I am a little confused if I need to remove the PLG files after they are installed? For example if I leave the MySQL plg file and the SimpleFearures in the /boot/config/plugins folder, wouldn't they try to get reinstalled after every reboot of the machine? Thanks and sorry for a dumb question
