October 27, 201114 yr Hi all, I added a seagate 2tb drive to my system today. When i go to add it to the array, I select it in slot "disk12" (next free one) and click ok, but the webgui freezes and i cant get in it. The HDD light on my case is on and I can access it via telnet ... is this normal? How long will it take to be online? Cheers in advance Ben

Cheers in advance Ben If the drive was not pre-cleared, and if you had already assigned and calculated parity, about 8 or 9 hours would be a good guess. It is clearing the drive by writing zeros to it. (This is assuming no error messages in the syslog)
October 27, 201114 yr Author Nope, no errors in the syslog, as long as viewing it by using tail -f /var/log/syslog in telnet is correct? I just wondered if this was normal - if it is i'll let it run Thanks
