  1. That's more of a brainbone question. You might find the answer in one of the earlier posts in this thread if you haven't already looked.. Jim
  2. Yes.. Just open up the tgz file and replace the original script. And recompress it.
  3. The original script would send a message out every hour (or whatever the default was) if you had it set up that way. Most of the time my disks were spun down and I would still get the message. So I modified the script to check to see if any are spun up. If all are spun down, then no message is sent. But if one or more are spun up, then it will send the message out. It won't spin up the disks that are still spun down, it will just report them as spun down.
  4. It's back... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136317
  5. Well the price is now $296.99 So it was either a typo or thye never intended to sell at that price! Bummer! I guess we'll have to wait a couple months (this summer maybe) before they come down to the $179 price!
  6. Here is the modified script to put in a couple of changes that brianbone added to make earthlink on the unraid_notify work. you can use it if you want.. but it's mainly for me when I forget about where I put my modified copy! :-) (remove the .txt in the file name)
  7. Here is the script and the config file that will only give you notices if one or more disks are spun up. If they are spun down, then no info is sent. There is a new variable in the conf file that will also control it. If the variable is not there then the script should behave like the released verison. # Send report if no disks are spun up. If True then Status report will onlt be sent if one or more disks are not # spun up. If all disks are not spun up, then no report will be sent if this variable is set to true. NoReportIfAllSpunDown = False just remove the .txt from both file names. Maybe Brainbone will include it in his next release. EDIT: New version below here
  8. Done! Thanks for your help! I now have a script that will only send me hourly updates if one or more disks are spun up. If they are all spundown, then I get no e-mail.
  9. Don't tell me that now!!!! I need to work!!! Must... not.... look.... at... script... while... at.. work... Hard... to... resist... temptation....
  10. Yeah.. I saw that.. I might do that.. The majority of time my drives are spun down. I'd only like to receive info when some are spun up.. Maybe I'll see if I can understand the script and customize it.. Otherwise I'll just set it for error messages only... Thanks, Jim
  11. I've read through all the pages a couple times and I didn't see it.. Is there a way to not send me an update if the disks are spun down? I suppose I could comb through the script and look myself... but it's easier to ask.. and considering I haven't got much work done at work the past two days because of unraid... I probably just get something work releated done today!! Jim
  12. Looks like it works! I was able to get the debug message through. Thanks a bunch for helping me with this. Now I have to figure out the next thing I want to muck with!!! Jim
  13. Just PMed you with your own earthlink account info. Thanks a bunch for helping me out! Jim

  16. I had windows installed on a disk in that machine still.. So I boot it up and downloaded the Asus update utility. That worked fine. so I didn't need to get a floppy drive! So I updated the the rom just fine. I'm running 4.2.84, I believe. I put my parity disk on the onboard Sata controller and I'm running a parity check to see how it all goes. so far it's not any faster than my plugin controller. Oh well.. It's most likely PCI based as well since it's a seperate chip anyway... but now If I need to upgrade disks, I can. I'll be able to support 3 - 1.5TB disks. That should hold me over until I have to buy another MB. Who knows.. Maybe I'll break down and buy the plus key. I still have a couple PATA drives that could sustain me until I can afford 3 - 1.5TB disks! I'll let you know if I have any sync errors.. I bought a couple of ebay 1Gb nini cruizer disks and one is crap.. but the other one seemed fine. I did some work at work and brought it home to try on the unraid and I got some weird errors. I tried it on another system at home and it worked fine.. I think the A7n8X is not long for this world!!

  18. Thanks! I appreciate the help.. 1. I actually did all those steps. I found the procedure somewhere else on the net. I really think my problem stems from the fact that I'm trying to update the flash from a usb drive, not a floppy. I think the awdflash utility needs a real floppy drive. I was trying my best avoid hooking up a floppy! I'll *grunt* hook up a floppy tonight and try it again. Even the stock bios didn't work. 2. As for the stability of the a7n8x deluxe... I've been using it for several months now and I haven't had any sync issues. To this day, I'm not using the on board sata. I'm trying to update it so I can switch to it and see if it's faster. If I start seeing sync issues I'll abandon it all together and buy a new system.. I'm strapped for cash right now so I'm hoping to get by with this for a while. I also only have 3 drives. I think I'll only stick with the free version as I feel the cost for the regular and pro are about 2x what I feel they should be. But that's a different rant! Maybe 3 disks won't cause synch issues and maybe more that 3 do? Who knows? It also might be that I'm not using the onboard sata right now. I have a PCI card that has 2 sata and 1 PATA connectors on it. I remember when I first built the system for and HTPC, the onboard sata would never record HD correctly. That's why I got the plugin card. Maybe it all stems from that? That's why I was hoping the bios upgrade would have fixed those issues.. Jim
  19. Yeah.. After a little research I discovered that too.. But now I can update my bios after I repacked it.. Even with the stock bios.. The awdflash utility just hangs when trying to write the flash. I'll have to do more investigation.. I may be stuck with that I have..
  20. This is what I found. http://www.siliconimage.com/support/searchresults.aspx?pid=63&cat=15 Was this the rigth stuff? Jim
  21. I think I found it.. was it the 4284.bin? And why didn't you use the flash utility on their website?
