April 17, 20233 yr I getting an error message in the dashboard of "Unraid OS - flash device error". I am attaching syslog messages and diagnostics. Please let me know if anything else is needed. Thanks, jordan-diagnostics-20230416-2135.zip jordan-syslog-20230417-0236.zip
April 17, 20233 yr Community Expert Solution According to the diagnostics the flash drive has dropped off-line (or failed). You will need to reboot (possibly with a power-cycle) to rectify this. If you can while doing this I would plug the flash drive into a PC/Mac to check i can be read correctly (and make a backup if you do not already have one). If you have a choice of ports on the server use a USB2 one in preference to a USB3 one as they tend to be more reliable.
April 19, 20233 yr Author well that was embarrassingly simple, reboot did the trick. I was worried about rebooting if the USB drive was dead Thanks!
