itskamel Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I have dual cache drives. Raid 1 from what I have read. (I have not changed any settings). Can i pull drive 2 and just replace it with a new one? Or do I still need to move everything off the drives? Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Depends. There was a bug in some versions of Unraid that didn't set the RAID level properly, causing the drives not to be fully redundant. If you search the forum johnnie.black has some posts on verifying and fixing it. Safest option would be to back things up before attempting a drive replacement. 1 Quote Link to comment

I am on the latest version if that matters. Quote Link to comment
