dp22 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hi, I would really appreciate any help you all might be able to provide for my situation. I have an UNRAID server running on an Intel NUC. I use a harddrive enclosure connected to my NUC via USB 3.0. My enclosure was behaving strangely so I bought a new one. I switched out the enclosures and tried to spin up my array, but Unraid does not recognize any of the disks. Below is a screen shot. Thanks, Dan Link to comment
trurl Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Looks like the USB enclosure is presenting the disk identifier differently than before. Go to Tools - New Config, assign your disks making absolutely sure you assign parity correctly. Then you can check the box saying parity is valid, and start the array. Not many people running everything USB. How long does a parity check take for your configuration? Link to comment

Yep, and that's one of the reasons USB array disks are not recommended, but the main one is still its poor error handling. Link to comment
dp22 Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Thanks for your help. I was able to reassign the drives and start the array. With the USB enclosure, parity check and rebuilding a drive takes days. I realize now this config was a mistake and will definitely change it up when I upgrade. It just fit the best with the materials I had available at the time. Thanks for your help. Link to comment
SSD Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I wish the NUC had more than one SATA port. Would make a great starter (or portable) platform along with a small disk enclosure. One or two SFF-8088s would be awesome! Link to comment
