Good day my fellow Home Labers,

I recently had a drive failure so I purchased a 22TB drive to replace my failed 8TB drive.  I originally had 22TB and 8TB drives in the Parity 1 and 2 slots.  So in order to use the 22TB drive to replace the failed 8TB drive I used UNBALENCED to remove all of the data from the 8TB drive (which was emulated at that point).  Then I proceeded to New Config to remove the 8TB Parity drive and add it to my data drives.  This worked great........With one exception.

The new Parity Sync is running at a snails pace.  Hell at this point, the snail is going to win the race...lol 

Parity sync speeds as slow as 250kbps with a high so far of 1.3mbps As you can see below.  I have used the docker app diskspeed to test all the drives and they check out.  

I am more likely to have another drive failure before this Parity Sync comes to completion.

System Specs

CPU - AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1920X
MB  -  ASRock X399 Taichi
RAM - 64GB DDR4
GPU - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070

I am attaching my diags.

Any help will be very appreciated

I have rebooted the system a few times and tried disabling all dockers and I have also changed the mover schedule to once per month.

No changes in parity sync speeds.

missed a few words int eh sentence

There's something else reading from multiple disks, and also some writes to disk4.

At present, yes, I do have Plex updating the library.  BUT I have disabled them before and there was no changes in speed.  I will disable them again and upload a new diag in a few minutes.

It can take a few minutes to stabilize.

Here is the new diag and screenshot with all dockers disabled

As you can see, it has sped up by 500kbps and cut my sync in half to 300-400 days but that is still a bit slow...lol

Disk2 and disk3 are still getting a lot of accesses.

I have gone into setting and disabled docker, all shares are currently set to not export so there is no access to the system except root access.  Is there anything else I can disable?

Perhaps you should try this in Maintenance mode as that would guarantee there is no file level access going on.

I am giving this a try right now.

That seems to have been the winning ticket.

avg speed now is 240MB/sec

Thanks

But Docker service not disabled in Settings.

 

And your appdata and system shares have files on the array.
