No I did not let the parity finish, at the rate it was going it was going to take days. The preclear of the disks took around 27 hours, which I believe is normal. The benchmarks I have have run "hdparms -tT /dev/sdX" are all around 50mbps, sometimes I see around 250kbps. Only one time I got around 90-100mbps. After multiple preclears and long smart tests one of the WDC drives failed. I returned it since it is still within the return period. I am waiting for the exchange to arrive. It is perplexing to me why the preclears look reasonable and the benchmarks and parity sync are really slow. Could there be a problem, since it looks like the IDE bus is active? ============================================= 00:14.1 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc SB700/SB800 IDE Controller (prog-if 8a [Master SecP PriP]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

I am having slow parity sync speeds on a new system, I averaging about 19 MBps. my setup is as follows: AMD ATHLON II X2 270 3.4GHZ 2MB 65W ASUS M5A78L-M LX AMD 760G Socket AM3+ (2) Western Digital Caviar Green 2 TB Desktop Hard Drive WD20EARX -- One disk 30% full and 1 parity drive (1) Seagate ST31500341AS (not in array) All HDD are on onboard SATA and set the AHCI all 3 in drive cage (supermicro CSE-M35T-1B 5-in-3 drive cage) unraid 5.0 beta 14 I precleared the drives, I turned off everything in the BIOS that is not needed. I attached the syslog, any ideas would be appreciated. Does anyone think a supernicro AOC-SASMV8 help the issue syslog-2012-02-01.txt

In case anyone is interested; I solved the issue. The hostname needs to be a valid name, so I used the dydns name I have. Also for some reason the outgoing port 465 does not work, it only works for windows applications. It needs to be a different number for the secure port (587).

I installed "ssmtp_2.62" to send emails to myself from the unRAID server and I am having an issue. Verizon started using port 465 for the smtp server with SSL security. No matter what I put in the configuration variables I cannot get the email to work. If I use the 465 port "outgoing.verizon.net:465" in the configuration, no matter what I put in the other fields, the test "echo -e "Subject: a test\n\nThis is the email body." | ssmtp -d root" will hang, until I kill SSMTP. If I use the email server with the default port 25, ssmtp will send the message, but I will never receive it since they no longer pass email through the unsecure port. Can anyone using Verizon tell me how to get this to work? The contents of "ssmtp.conf" [email protected] mailhub=outgoing.verizon.net:465 hostname=localhost UseSTARTTLS=YES and NO // tried both encrytion is SSL AuthUser=myname AuthPass=***** FromLineOverride=YES Thanks for any help you can give.
