Syslog rotated so we can't see the start of the problems, but the ntfs-3g errors are likely from an unassigned ntfs drive, other ones might be a flash problem, post new diags after rebooting.

rebooted and attached new diags.   for the flash drive would i just plug it into a windows pc to fix it?  I have had to do that in the past.

Yes, also, if using a USB 3.0 port use a UBS 2.0 instead.

thank you johnnie.black i will plug into a usb 2 port.  

is this just a problem with one of my dockers?

You have a created a share named "?"  This is a weird name that is incompatible with the FAT32 filesystem on the flashdrive when unraid tries to read its settings.  

 

It will technically cause no problems other than the errors, but the errors only will spam the logs and create problems.  Rename or delete that share.

thank you for you help squid i have deleted the ? dir.
