[USB Drive randomly disconnects, cant remount]

I have a USB 10 TB drive used for backups, this is somewhat of a new setup trying to get my backups running smoothly. The drive has two partitions, 1 is EFI, it mounts just fine after a disconnect. The second partition is my exFAT partition that contains all my backup data.

 

I am using https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0151BDW9S/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_i_FTrcEbFW9RAHX as the disk bay which I am thinking might be the culprit. I can remount this using the nonempty option for fuse but thats using cli and a manual thing i have to do every once in awhile.

 

I am looking for suggestions on what to do. I am considering buying a sata to usb connector that is not a case and see how that goes.

I love unraid, i love how i can add any size drive that isnt bigger then parity and also directly use a drive when i want. love docker and vm support. the new login is nice.

 

would like to see usb backup baked in with snapshots...a way to do pushover notifications, not sure if that exists

[Supercheap starter server]

Did your friend end up buying the server? I am considering this one as well. I am a little worried about the noise level but it would be in a closet behind a closed door...and was looking at doing 5tb drives.
