FLASH Read/Writes

Featured Replies

What is a normal amount of times for MyServers to write to flash drive?

 

I changed my flash drive two days ago; it seems like every hour something with MyServers is writing to flash drive. Adding a task for flash backup? Even though no configuration changes have been made?

Should I be concerned about the amount of Read/Writes for a flash drive only 3 days old? I’d swore my old drive had less writes and was years old.

The flash backup is designed to backup the flash drive whenever a change is made. Your screen shot shows three backups in three hours, that is not excessive. If it was being called every minute then you would want to figure out what was changing on the flash drive that caused it to be called every minute, see https://forums.unraid.net/topic/112745-stop-useless-backups/#comment-1026714

DIAGS, They're attached 🙂

 

Edit: I don't think changes to flash drive are being made too often just that Flash Backup "TASK" keeps getting added. Not sure why task would need to continue to be re-added? *maybe that's legitimate; im genuinely curious though

Thanks :)

 

You have the rclone plugin installed, and it writes to this file on the flash drive constantly:
  config/plugins/rclone/.rclone.conf

Flash backup is configured to ignore those writes so it is not making the problem worse. But rclone itself still writes a lot.

I am almost positive I am not using rclone at all... I am going to go try to disable it. In fact; I dont ever remember enabling or installing it. Oops

 

Thank you, thank you so much 🙂
