Swapping out disks


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I currently have the following configuration:

 

Array:

1TB HDD

 

Cache:

256GB SSD

 

Unassigned:

256GB SSD

480GB SSD

 

I just noticed that my 1TB HDD is getting i/o errors. Which caused my shares tab to be completely empty.

 

i do i have all my Appdata on my cache SSD and also my libvirt.img

 

I want to change out my 1TB HDD for a 480 SSD. i've searched through the forum and found that it supports the correct functions:

 

           *    Data Set Management TRIM supported (limit 8 blocks)
           *    Deterministic read ZEROs after TRIM

 

To be used in the array.

 

How can i swap out the HDD correctly now? since i'm using a cache SSD?

Trim is disabled for all arrays devices, though you can still use an SSD.

Since there's no parity you's need to do a new config and re-assign the devices, any data on the original array disk won't be copied, if you need some you'd need to that manually, assuming the disk is still working, without diags can only guess.

Thank you for the answer. luckily i make backups every night of my appdata, only thing i lose is the iso's folder which i couldn't care less about :p.
