This makes sense - Parity Upgrade from 8TB to 14TB, and then replace the failed 2TB Drive with the spare 8TB

His Parity is 8 TB, but the drive he has to hand is 14 TB. I think what he's asking is wether or not he can add the 14 TB in (to be 2nd parity for now), then once Parity rebuilt, remove Party 1 (the 8 TB) to replace the 2 TB failed drive? Essentially, looks like he was going to swap the 8 TB Parity for a 14 TB, but whilst this was being planned, he had a drive failure (2 TB). Can't stick the 14 TB in to replace the failed drive.

This was a faulty mobo - Replacement see's them fine. First time I've ever had a DOA MOBO!

I've RMA'd the Mobo - I'll let you know. Thanks for you help!

Swapped them around - and it does look like the top M.2 slot is fubar, as the bottom one is working fine again with the other NVME:

Here's the new Diag with the one showing (which is the bottom M.2 slot and not the one powered by the CPU, I think) thecube-diagnostics-20240702-1615.zip

This gets stranger by the minute! So just after I sent you those new logs, I took the drives out - stuck them in a caddy and tested them on my Win 11 Desktop. Both came up fine, so formatted them as MBR and dropped test files on them both - work fine. Stuck them back in the new build, one is NOW showing in unassigned devices, but the other is still missing

Heres a fresh one - I think in the last one, I only had one connected. thecube-diagnostics-20240702-1558.zip

Having some real issues with a new Unraid build, and not sure what I'm doing wrong/where Ive gone wrong. Both NVME drives are not showing in unassigned drives. I've pulled them out, stuck them back in, swapped them round etc to no avail. Only one shows in System Devices (which is the bottom M.2 slot on the motherboard - no matter which drive is in). Its an Intel i5-12400F on a Gigabyte B760M DS3H DDR4 Mobo - The NVMEs are Crucial P3 Plus (1 TB and PCIe 4). As far as I can tell, they should be compatable with both the CPU and Mobo as PCIe4 devices. thecube-diagnostics-20240702-1515.zip

Changed cable and much better!

Turned bridging off as per the below, but still no change. @JorgeB any ideas? ipref results both ways with Driver Plugin and Bridging off. but

Sorted this be clearing teh network.cfg file! Back to slow speeds again haha

Pretty confident - other desktop on Wifie 6E has the same results. Was just tring to turning bridging off as sugegsted in another post, added the router to eth0 and now unRAID is inaccesable. Think I've just bricked my entire NAS...

Just done a both ways ipref and still the same with the Plugin and a New Cat5e Cable - 4 pairs.

No success unfortunatly

Hey All, I 'think' i'm getting slow transfer speeds from my Desktop to UnRAID (NvME Cache) - approx 50 - 60 Mbps. UnRAID is connected to router via 2.5 Gbe ports and shows as 2500 Mbps, full duplex, mtu 1500 in Unraid. Ran iperf, and Bandwidth only showing between 168 to 181 Mbits/sec. How do I improve this? alfred-diagnostics-20231123-1244.zip

Ignore! All working

Did you get any help with this? Mine doesnt even show the 15 day extenstion and Im in the same boat, was waiting till next week to grab a license.

Does this still work? I dont want to risk stopping my array without being able to get it back online. I'm holding out for Cyber Weekend sale!

This has become an issue again. Im now on my THIRD drive! All drives fail in Disk 1. Drive 1 - Seek Error Rate of less than 30. RMA'd and replaced with new device. Drive 2 - Seek Error Rate of less than 40. RMA's again and replaced with another new device. Drive 3 - Been in overnight and Seek Error currently at 92 and dropping, even with no data being used/pulled from the Array. I'm losing my marbles! @JorgeB I heard you run lots of Toshibas. Any thoughts? I just cant understand why its always Disk 1 thats failing and not my Parity or Disk 2.

2nd Failure just occured *insert crying gif here* Do you think the fact I'm using my NAS as a Media Server has anything to do with it? For clarity, both disk failures have been Disk 1.

Wish I'd have seen this before buying N300s... Bought 3x 16 TB. One failed SMART with a Seek_Error_Rate, so bought a 4th so I could swap out and RMA the 3rd. Still waiting for the RMA to come back, but the replacement drive I bought is now extremly close to the threshold and I'm worry thats going to fail on that test too! It's not even been online for more than 4 days!!

I absolutly loved builidng my NAS in the 804 - Highly recommended!

Curious what everyone's expereince with the N300 is like? I've got a total of 4, all within 30 days old. One already RMA'ed due to Seek_Error_Rate passing 50 Threshold, and another currently running pretty close to the threshold. Are they just pants and should I avoid the N300's in future?

I use iCloud Drive Sync - its in the community store. Not sure about folder structure, but 100% worth taking a look. I just dump all of my iCloud pics to a folder for backup really.
