warwon Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) Currently my Unraid server I built back in 2013 is on edge, the disk are starting to fail. The parity disk is reporting errors all the time, and the cache disk is close to death. Specs: CPU: Intel I3-4130 MB: Gigabyte H87-D3H-CF RAM: 16 GB of DDR3 Storage: 4 x - WD40EFRX from 2013 4TB each - also using a old ass Synology from 2015 for another 16TB on it, again nearing end of life. Wife is pushing towards a Asustor Lockerstor 6 Gen2 AS6706T, and I am bit unsure if I want to DIY it again. Biggest question, is should I just leave the hardware as is, pull drives one at a time to replace them with something like 12TB ironwolf, and leave the hardware. Or should I get a NAS device less headache as this server is just a nightmare on time in the past year with issues, or replace all the hardware/ drives?

Vr2Io Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 You may ref. some user feedback about Asustor Lockerstor 6 Gen2. Pls check with them does system stable or any know trouble. ( Pls note N5xxx or N6xxx is some kind weak CPU ) No matter DIY or NAS, bad disk must replace. Quote Link to comment
