August 13, 20241 yr Dear All, Am getting persistent error messages indicating a USB. My unraid server only has one USB device, a PNY32Gb USB for booting into unraid. My search found https://urukrama.wordpress.com/2009/01/27/usb-drive-not-recognised-error-71/ https://www.spinics.net/lists/usb/msg02644.html A search of unraid did not find an /etc/modprobe.conf file as per the above guidance Anybody experienced this before and have a workaround or is it simply time to replace the USB?? Many thanks for any feedback henderson-syslog-20240813-0900.zip henderson-diagnostics-20240813-1919.zip
August 13, 20241 yr Author Hi JorgeB, okay will try this next. I recall that I have a USB Wifi in the back of the unraid machine as a backup in case the ethernet failed. I'll pull that out tomorrow. I am pre-clearing a disk right now so just want to wait until that process is finished. Thank you
August 13, 20241 yr Author Ok, JorgeB am advising that there is only ONE USB in the unraid PC and the rror messages continue to show as per the attached syslog. Thank you henderson-syslog-20240813-2305.zip
August 14, 20241 yr Author Looks like I may be too late to identify the problem. I wonder if it related to a power outage we had last week. I normally let the unraid server run 24/7
August 14, 20241 yr Author I followed the instructions regarding replacing the USB but it has not worked. I've lost unraid, now can't get in.

August 14, 20241 yr Author Hi JorgeB, I went through the process as described in unraid documentationbut I found it difficult to follow. UnRaid boots now using the new USB and I get the screen below. However I don't want to "Replace Key" (I purchased a Pro licence in March this year so I am not expecting to have purchase again because a USB drive got corrupted) or "Purchase Key" or "Redeem Activation code" (dont know what this is ) I want to "Replace USB" but this option doe snot exist? Really hard to understand how to progress with the set of options presented to me?
August 14, 20241 yr Author Think I have resolved by selecting the "Replace Key" option, which makes no sense to me at all, however it worked. Thank you
August 14, 20241 yr Author That was 21 hours from start to finish with my heart in my mouth. Nerve wrecking stuff
