I have unRaid 4.7 installed.  It was working for a long time just fine.

 

Now for some reason, I can't seem to copy large files to it.  I can read from it just fine.

 

I am mounting a share from windows via the unraid share.

 

I have replaced the network card with a new one, to no avail. 

 

I have tried to reseat all the cables but that hasn't helped.

 

I did a parity check which came back clean.

I have 10 SATA drives in it.  I have a Promise SATAII Expansion card.  I suppose it could be bad.  How can I tell?

 

I have check network connections and tried copying from different machines with the same result.

 

Anyone have any tips on how to check to see if the drives are bad or if there are logs that would show why I a cannot copy large files over to it.

 

Thanks.

You need to provide much more information about your problem.  First you need a syslog--- See first post in this thread:

Second, I think you need a more complete description of exactly how you are accessing the share.  Are you navigating to it from Windows Explorer or have you actually mounted it as a 'drive' in windows?  If mounted as a drive, have you tried to copy to the array using Windows Explorer?  What is the Exact error message in Windows-- and have you googled that text?

Have a look at this thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=20757.0

I know your not running 5 but see if what I see happens to you

I have more information now.

 

First of all, i have looked at the syslog and don't see anything.

 

Just to clarify, on my windows 7 machine, i mount a unraid share as a drive.  I then try to copy files to it.

 

I have discovered something however: I had an idea to delete a bunch of data from the unraid share and once I did that, i was able to copy.  Strange because unraid is reporting about 60GB free on each of the 9 drives, not including the parity drive.  so it seems like unraid thinks it is out of space although that is not what it is reporting.

 

Anybody have any thoughts?

What is the min free space setting for the share?
