  1. or wait for a newer Unraid release, with a newer kernel, not much more you can do, other than getting a different board.
  2. You have 3 different disk sizes, parity check can never be faster than the slowest disk at any point, and disks are much slower as they get to the inner cylinders, so it will slow down 3 times, especially noticeable as it gets near the end of the 3TB disks, then 4TB and finally 8TB. Also you have some disks that max out at around 150MB, even on the outer cylinders, like the 4TB Reds, so 130MB/s is not bad, it should be more than that in the beginning but there will be points that it will be much slower, you can get an idea by running the diskspeed docker. Hardware wise your fine, just make sure the HBA is on one of the top 2 slots, the x8 CPU slots, can't see that in the diags.
  3. Are you replacing or removing? To remove just unassign them and start the array, to replace you could have done it one at a time, without moving any data and maintaining the pool online.
  4. Yep, and after re-assigning them all check "parity is already valid" next to the array start button to avoid a parity sync.
  5. You can do a new config, with single parity data device order doesn't matter, so you can check parity is already valid after the changes to avoid a parity sync (you can only change the order, all devices must remain the same).
  6. Like @trurlmentioned you should always post the complete diags, but this is a rather common problem with the onboard SATA controller and Ryzen boards, usually using the latest beta helps, but I see you're already using it, look for a bios update os disable IOMMU of not needed.
  7. Please post diags so I can have a look at the hardware you have.
  8. The backplane you have uses a direct connection the the drives, so no way to be faster, if you have performance issues it's not that, where are you trying to improve perfomance?
  9. No expander, each miniSAS plug connects directly to 4 devices.
  10. Now might as well let it finish, but if/when you add a new disk do it the correct way.
  11. Because it was set to xfs, default is auto. No, you don't need to do anything with UD, just assign it to an array slot, start the array, disk will be cleared (unless it was precleared already) and then you can format.
  12. AFAIK Norcos don't usually have an expander, a SAS expander allows a single cable from the HBA to connect all disks, can you do that?
  13. If it's a new disk it will use the default filesystem set on Settings -> Disk Settings, if you have an array disk and want to change it to a different filesystem then you click on it and change it there, then format at next array start.
  14. That's not how you do it, you can or not preclear the drive, don't format, add to array, if the drive is not precleared it will be cleared by Unraid and then you can format it, if it precleared you'll just need to format it.
  15. Stop array, click on the that disk and change the filesystem to the new one, start array and format.
  16. If you do it inside the array there's no need for a check after.
  17. Yes, all array disks should be formatted inside the array, or parity won't be updated and will become out of sync.
  18. Auto will give the filesystem already on disk, if it's already formatted with one of the supported filesystems, or what's set on settings -> disk settings for any newly formatted disk.
  19. Because you're not doing it right. Stop the array, click on disk3, set filesystem to auto, start array. You'll still need to run a parity check after.
  20. But that was before, after formatting the disk with UD the next check will detect sync errors.
  21. Unassigned devices plugin. No it's not, Unraid just has no way of knowing it's not, until you run a parity check, it will still say valid but there will be sync errors.
  22. It's not, it's set to xfs. Also, why are you formatting array disks with UD? That will make parity invalid.
