Booting from USB2 port is more important than using USB2 flash.

i think i may be plugged into the usb3 ports on the system board. i will order a usb2 system board header to port adapter to make sure its good.

thank you for the quick replies!
When my flash crashed last year I used what I had to get the array back online, its a usb 3 Kingston drive, which i understand usb 2.0 is recommended. previous to this i ran an 8gb usb3 microcenter cash register special which lasted 6 years!
I went ahead and ordered 2 of the usb 2.0 DTSE9 metal drives, while i wait for those, i will try to fix the current flash, and in the future will always try to time my downtime to Pacific Standard Time 🤣

i was noticing some odd behavior on unraid, (my custom tower picture was half loaded like a corrupt image) some dockers have "?" icons and no controls to enter the webUI (they are both still working) 

 

i rebooted the server, and got the error USB flash drive failure, alert USB drive is not read-write. 

normally this would not be a super huge deal, i have backups however i had my flash crash last September 9th

 

the log is being filled with -

[[SOLVED] Flash drive failed]

i am in the same boat, is there any way to tell which drive is the cache drive? i have 2 of the same largest drives.
