February 5, 200917 yr I am a newb so any help would be appriciated. When I do a parity check the speed on the control panel says 2457 kbs this is about 2.4mb correct? If so isn't this very slow? I had this mobo running windows and tried to update bios I think it worked. The lan port will not work in unraid but does in windows I assum it is not supported? Not a big deal I can add a card. Hardware Gigabyte GA-8I915GA pro 4 sata 7 sata drives parity is a WD TB Green 2 Syba pcie sta cards I tried to attach my syslog but keep getting an error "upload folder is full"
February 5, 200917 yr Really need to see the syslog. Perhaps others can suggest good free online places to make it available, I know that others are using them. A normal syslog is between 50K and 80K, so if its much bigger than that, then almost certainly there are disk errors being logged, and that is what is slowing it down. Hard to say more without checking the syslog. Have you installed UnMENU yet? It has a syslog plugin that can show you many kinds of issues in your syslog.

February 5, 200917 yr Author I just posted the syslog on pastebin I have not used unmenu yet I will look into how to sintall it sometime today. http://pastebin.com/m22776120
February 6, 200917 yr I don't see anything particularly wrong, that would account for a 2.4MB/s speed. However, this syslog only covers an apparent period of 16 minutes, about 12 seconds of booting and your login 16 minutes later. There are no subsequent logged messages. A parity sync has been kicked off, will be running for awhile. No real errors are apparent, or serious configuration issues. A couple of things: you might capture another syslog, to see if anything new has appeared in the syslog. And, you have to keep refreshing the screen to see updated sync progress. The first speed numbers are notoriously unreliable. I would always wait to 5% or later for more reliable speed estimates. I don't have any more ideas so far. Let's wait a few more hours, then update us about the sync progress. The lan port will not work in unraid but does in windows I assum it is not supported? Not a big deal I can add a card. In this syslog, a RealTek RTL8139 type LAN chipset has been found and set up, using the 8139too driver, and should work fine, at 10/100mbps. Adding a gigabit card would provide faster transfer speeds, but remember to disable this onboard NIC in the BIOS settings. One oddity, the kernel assigned IRQ 19 to both the network driver and to the 4 onboard SATA ports, an unfortunate and sub-optimal item, but it is so minor that you would be unlikely to see a performance difference if changed.
