wisem2540 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 My build was based on the Supermicro SAS controller that was so popular for many years. Parity syncs have always been somewhat slow. That controller would crash occasionally and mark 3-4 drives as missing.  That happened again today, so I finally swapped it for a Dell H310  right now, my parity is syncing at 33MB. It does increase after a while, sometimes. I have attached a log to see if anything jumps out.  EDIT  after 30mins it is now up to 125MB.  Is this slow start normal?  Thanks unraid-diagnostics-20180703-1720.zip Link to comment

wisem2540 Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 I was doing some looking around and realized that the drives plugged into my motherboard ports are only operating at 3G rather than 6gs. Will I noticed any Improvement if I buy another HBA? Link to comment
JorgeB Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 SATA2 is more than enough for current hard drives, SSDs are a different story. Link to comment
