Hello all,
I am rebuilding, cleaning, and upgrading my server a bit. I have not been able to find specifically an answer tot his question:
While I rebuild this system, do I need to keep the hard drives plugged into the same SATA ports? If I have the parity plugged into SATAII 0, and I rebuild it plugged into SATAII 2 slot, will it effect the array? I was not sure if it keeps track of the HDDs based on a serial number or the SATA port assignment in the array.
Just to list it, this is what I am doing: Clean unit, replace CPU coolers, add 2 fans, 5.25" Fan controller, add 2x 6TB red drives, add 32GB memory, redo wiring management.
Thanks in advance for you assistance! This venture into unRAID has been fantastic!

I just want the metadata I don't want a server I already have one called Unraid
In the Community Apps there is a application called "FileBot". I believe it will do what you would like to do. You can drag and drop several video files at once and it can search the online databases and collect the meta data into the file and even rename the files to the perfect naming scheme for organization purposes.

No speed difference for HDDs and no problem mixing both, if you have an SSD connect it on one of the SATA3 ports.
Alright, thank you for the assistance, I will address this issue and move forward!
Cheers!

Never use the Marvell controller on that board (first 4 white ports), they are known for dropping disks all the time, use the Intel ports only and your troubles will be over.
Thank you for the response! Only those 4 plus 2 others I believe are Sata III, will there be a clear Speed difference between Sata II and III with this setup if I am using a cache drive anyways? And would it cause any problems having 2/4 connected as Sata III vs II ?

Hello everyone! First adventure into unRAID to dive further into Linux systems and I seem to be having an issue getting something started here.
I have been struggling to get this array started and going for a couple days now (partially a lack of time with preclears/parity checks). I started the pre clear before but closed out the webGUI before it finished which apparently cancels it. Just wanting to test it out and make sure it is good to go before pre clearing I started the array, during the parity check it fails and turns the disk disabled. I had done that twice, this time I did a preclear on 2 of the 4 HDDs which failed the pre-read. and thrown the errors below. To get the HDDs to show back up after the errors I have to reboot the system and to get it to stop declaring the parity disabled I had to go to tools and select New Config.
I have tried 3 different HDDs as the parity and attempted to pre-clear them all so I don't think it is a faulty HDD. I also ran an extended MemTest86+ to verify it wasn't any of the ram in the system. I clicked on the System Log to copy it but it didn't copy it, attached is the diagnostics ran after the failure. Hardware:
M/B: ASRock - EP2C602-4L/D16CPU: Intel® Xeon® CPU E5-2670 0 @ 2.60GHzHDD: x4 6TB Red, 2TB Red, 120gb SanDisk Ultra cacheKernel: Linux 4.9.30-unRAID x86_64I think that I am the problem and not setting something up correctly so any help would be appreciated. If you need any other information please let me know!
