    No you don't want any raid with Unraid.

     

     

    Ok .. so I was wrong to buy HP H240 Smart?  I don't need it for unraid?  I saw your link but which one do you recommend to buy that can have the most sata ports?  is there a sas controller without raid that is fully compatible?  sorry if i ask you but i already got it wrong once and i would like to buy the right controller.  a thousand thanks

    You are using an Asmedia controller with a SATA port multiplier, those are not recommended, not surprisingly disk4 is connected there, suggest you replace that with a recommended model before attempting any more rebuilds.

     

    Thank you very much for your reply, I am really convinced that the problems related to my unraid are due to the sata controller. In fact 2 months ago I bought this:


    HP - 726907-B21 - HP H240 Smart

     

     

     

    But when I mounted it, my unraid did not detect even one hdd of the ones I had connected. I also tried to run an ssd with a copy of Windows 10, but even that operating system did not identify any hdd .. I believe that this controller must be configured to set which type of raid should be configured. Obviously to run unraid I think you have to set "raid-1". But I don't know where to start for this type of configuration, I tried to press F11 F9 F10 at boot, but nothing happens.
    Some advice?

  3. Hi boys! I tried to do "SMART extended self-test", but it freezes at 10% and then after a few minutes it freezes.
    The disk7 that resulted with the wrong filesystem, I tried to format it, but doing so I lost all the contents, because when I restarted the array, it did not rebuild the volume, but presented it as empty, this was a big problem for me , I lost 6tb! :(

    Ok, one restarted everything, I found the only positive side, because the disks were all green ..
    But this morning I lost disk 4. At this point I would like to understand what is wrong with my UnRaid, before I lose any more data. Do you think it could be a problem in the Sata PCI controller? or the unraid USB Stick? If necessary I could create a new Unraid, I believe that to do this it is only important to put the disks back

     

    I attach the diagnostic zip file and attach today's screenshot ...

    There is a lot more to the story than that! What did you do with your server before you went to sleep?

     

    You seem to be rebuilding disk8, but it looks like there are connection problems on disk7.

     

    Explain in detail exactly how you got to this point.

    Maybe my problem is that every 7-10 days a disk becomes "missing disk" but it is never the same .. Sometimes it is also the "parity" one .. Who knows what is happening to my server ..
    I didn't do anything before going to sleep, I just built a disk that had become a "missing disk", I restarted the parity start without that disk, then I rebuilt it then start it again, so the reconstruction started.

  5. Hi guys!
    A few days ago I bought this pci sas controller in order to increase the disks connected to my Unraid server that I have owned for 6 years now.

     

    HP - 726907-B21 - HP H240 Smart HBA


    I mounted the PCI card and plugged in all the disks, but when I started Unraid, the system doesn't even see a disk mounted on the HP H240 controller. I believe that there is a way to set the various modes on the board such as enabling or disabling the HBA mode, or raid1-5 etc..but I don't know how to do it.

    Can you help me for this? Usually I find every answer on the web, without disturbing the forum, but this time I ask for help from all of you.

    Thank you all!
