SP67 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Hello I've just finished installing some new drives on my unRAID machine. 1. First, I moved everything out of my cache drives and restarted. All ok. 2. I installed 2 new ssds and 2 new hdds. I have changed some sata cables but AFAIK this is not a problem with unRAID. I have started the machine and assigned the 2 ssds to the cache slots and one of the drives to the array. However, the array won't start and there are shares listed. Global Shares are set to enable. I'm attaching my diagnostics file. Please help as I'm quite scared. nas-diagnostics-20230904-2322.zip Quote Link to comment
Solution itimpi Posted September 4, 2023 Solution Share Posted September 4, 2023 I think you changed a parity drive and tried to add a new drive? This cannot be done as a single step - do these steps one at a time (order not important). Quote Link to comment
SP67 Posted September 5, 2023 Author Share Posted September 5, 2023 You’re right. I powered the system off and started up again. It reported an unclean shutdown so I left it during a parity check of my old 3 drives. I also started a pre clear on the two new drives in case they were bad. I woke up and the server is not responding. No GUI, no SSH, so I had to power off manually again. Any ideas? Thanks! Quote Link to comment

You could enable the syslog server (probably with the option to Mirror to Flash set) to get a syslog that survives a reboot so we can see what leads up to a crash. If using the mirror option the syslog file is stored in the 'logs' folder on the flash drive. Quote Link to comment
