I have a WD Red 8TB drive sealed from WD. Warranty expires March 2019. It was a replacement for a failed 8TB drive that I sent back to them that I don't need anymore. Would this work?

So even the drives in the stock slots stay cool? That's a nice case.

What new case are you using now? Those IcyDock cages could replace my iStarUSA cages.

What's the room temp during a parity check? What's the room temp during a parity check? For a while I was actually doing the same thing with the same iStarUSA 5in3 cages and I removed the stock fans. My case only had two 120mm fans along with the 80mm PSU fan and it didn't work at all. Temps were terrible at 40+ with a room temp of 76F. Could have been that my exhaust fans weren't good for that purpose. I only had 8 drives out of the 15 available. It must be quiet because it sits next to my desk and I work from home. What case are you using?

Do you have the cage or the hot-swap version? What do your temps look like for a parity check and what is room temp?

Thanks Fireball, Auto Shutdown has been working great lately.

Thanks for working on this Fireball. When I run the script it seems to just loop at this point. I have all checks set to "no" except for lock file and disks parked. No IP checks either.

I use the CX500 without issues, but many here recommend avoiding the CX line for server use. They're really cheap for a reason.

What exactly does Carabolic's script do? I'm able to sleep the server with the "echo -n mem > /sys/power/state" command and wake via magic packet, but I don't like putting the server to sleep without first making sure nothing is running or being accessed, and I'd like the drives to be spun down before the server goes to sleep. Is this possible? I'm on 5.0 Final.

Thanks for confirming.

Gotcha, thanks guys.

Is it normal for the Post Read on all his drives to be nearly half the Preread and Zeroing speeds?

I've never used a Seagate drive in the server, do these results from a 4TB NAS drive look Ok?

I already use unMENU and its package manager, will they work well together?
