June 15, 20242 yr Hello all, I recently added 2x new 12Tb drives to my array. Now every couple of minutes to hours, multiple shares disappear. I haven't been able to pinpoint what's causing this. I tried removing the new drives and it kept happening. The shares don't seem to reappear even after many hours have passed. They only show up after a full reboot, but then disappear not long after... I ran a check against the 2 drives, and it didn't seem to find anything with option "-v". Not sure what to do to fix this gigachad-diagnostics-20240614-2056.zip
June 15, 20242 yr Community Expert How are these drives connected? Just asking as there appears to be a USB disconnect just before you start getting issues on a drive.
June 15, 20242 yr Author Ah! Yes I've got 2 USB connections. Can you help me identify which drive is showing this disconnection?
June 15, 20242 yr Community Expert Solution Not off hand I an afraid. USB connections are known to cause issues if used for drives in the main array as Unraid is not ‘hot plug’ aware and cannot handle such drives disconnecting even if they promptly reconnect again.
June 15, 20242 yr Author Ah! Wasn't aware of that. Thanks! I'll re-arrange my drives to remove the USB connections. Thanks a lot!
