Hex

Running 4.7 at last. When 2TB drives are $80, you just replace them. Took about 16 hrs to rebuild. I will attach the hpa drive to my pc and fix it from there and then add it back again. Thanks for your help. Lime, y'know when the bootloader loads it asks for your selection for unraid or memtest, how about putting a program there to check and remove any HPA issues? Sounds like a winner to me! Hex

I run a 10TB WHS V1 and it runs fine since I put all the drives on a sata port multiplier and got all the USB drives off of it. I also run a Windows Web server with a dozen sites on it. I have 2 FTP sites and also run my own email server. I am a programmer. I bought Unraid because of the unique way of data protection. It is not the double the data on two drives like WHS. I now have a 12TB Unraid that I cannot update because of a problem. I bought a motherboard that was on the approved list that didn't work. The next time I checked the list the MB was blacklisted. It was a rough road to get this thing to work but it does work. I have my unit as a headless unit stuck in a closet across the house. I guess I will telnet into it and fix it. I wrote that last message after a long day and I wasn't in any mood to modify parameters or track down logs or any of that stuff. But I guess I will do that now that I am in a better mood. Lime, if during the initial setup, can you just take the size of the disc as gospel or will bios choke on it? Y'know, eliminate the HPA during format? Don't stop work on 5+ or dgaschk will blow a vein. Thanks for your support Chris.

Same ol story. Updated to 4.7, samsung drive reports too small. Went back to 4.6 and am going to wait until the expensive program I bought can fix the problem. I am tired of patching program errors. Did I buy into a hobby program or a professional program? I am glad the program works good as is and I guess I will not update. Post a fix subject title in the forum that THE program can fix this problem and I will try again. Thanks
