April 14, 201313 yr Hi, I am a new UnRAID user - I am running UnRAID Basic 5.0 rc12a. My array configuration is like this: Disks 1 and 2 are 1TB and my parity disk is 2TB. When copying files to the array today I noticed that my Disk 1 is now 50% full with 499.58GB free. However instead of writing to fill up disk 1 100%, new files are now being written to disk 2 which was previously empty. Can anyone please explain why the system is now writing to disk 2 before disk 1 is full? Thanks! NM
April 14, 201313 yr Author Saw this on disk 1 SMART stats. Is this a major concern? Could this be causing my error SMART Error Log Version: 1 Warning: ATA error count 185 inconsistent with error log pointer 1 ATA Error Count: 185 (device log contains only the most recent five errors) CR = Command Register [HEX] FR = Features Register [HEX] SC = Sector Count Register [HEX] SN = Sector Number Register [HEX] CL = Cylinder Low Register [HEX] CH = Cylinder High Register [HEX] DH = Device/Head Register [HEX] DC = Device Command Register [HEX] ER = Error register [HEX] ST = Status register [HEX] Powered_Up_Time is measured from power on, and printed as DDd+hh:mm:SS.sss where DD=days, hh=hours, mm=minutes, SS=sec, and sss=millisec.

April 14, 201313 yr Author OOPS - never mind - this seems to be the way the High Water disk allocation is supposed to work! I am concerned about the SMART errors though.....is this serious? Thanks
April 14, 201313 yr OOPS - never mind - this seems to be the way the High Water disk allocation is supposed to work! Thanks High water = takes the largest disk size and cuts it in two, then fills all disks up to that value, once all disks are at that value, it cuts the old value in half again and fills all disks up to the new value. E.G. like:- Fill all disks up to 1.5TB Fill all disks up to 750GB Fill all disks up to 375GB Assuming the disks at 3TB in size. Most-Free = Picks the disk with the most free space, it works on the real value, not on a percentage (I believe). Fill-up = Fills disks fully up one by one You probably want fill up, if you want disks to be filled one at a time.
