DeNNii Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Hi guys I just got back into Unraid recently and build a 20bay nas to migrating drives and data to the new NAS. I am having inconsistent or very very long rebuild times. My Last 2 drives i swapped out it took about 3-4 days from memory but for this one its just way to long. Would this procedure also be faster if i moved the data from the disks being replaced out first with Unbalance?. At the moment i had a handfull of bigger drives and will replace all the 3-6tb drives with 8TB Drives and then replace all those with 12TB+ Drives and at this rate my little exercise will take me a year plus. Also will it be faster to replace 1 drive at a time instead of 2? My Rebuild speed last few days has been 1-4MB/Sec monsta-nas-diagnostics-20221101-1227.zip I would like to thank everyone in advance. Also, if you find the issue, please let me know how to identify it in the future. Quote Link to comment
Solution JorgeB Posted November 1, 2022 Solution Share Posted November 1, 2022 There's something writing to the array during rebuild, disks 2 and 3 are being rebuilt while there are writes to disks 1, 6, 7, 8 and 9, this will make the rebuild (and writes) extremely slow. Quote Link to comment
DeNNii Posted November 1, 2022 Author Share Posted November 1, 2022 I am Migrating data from multiple Synology 8 bay units. But you seem to be correct. This morning 1 mirror task finished at some point and rebuild time went back to about a day or so. So would it be fastest to turn off everything during rebuild? Including Docker etc?

Any other drive activity during a rebuild will adversely affect the performance of the rebuild so avoiding it if at all possible is highly desirable. Quote Link to comment
