July 31, 20205 yr Hi All, Amateur here, so bare with me: Recently swapped all my drives to a DELL R510 with a H200 in IT Mode. Everything booted up as expected. After some time I couldnt access Plex, so off I went to check what was wrong: For some reason, my SSD Cache was showing under cache + Unassigned devices, both with different IDs (sdc and sdl) A reboot or stop start of the array resolves the problem, but only for a few hours. I had a play around (changing file system from btrfs to xfs) so logs are full of me playing around. TIA! unraidnas-syslog-20200731-2215.zip
August 1, 20205 yr Author Hi Jonnie, Diag attached. It hasn't happened since last reboot so not sure if it will show anything? Thank you. unraidnas-diagnostics-20200801-1917.zip

No, but still good to have them to look at all the hardware, looking at the earlier syslog the cache dropped offline, then reconnected with a different letter, h200 is not the best option for SSDs since trim won't work, if you can use a SATA port instead, if you don't have one swap/replace cables, if it keeps happening best bet is to try a different model SSD.
August 2, 20205 yr Author Hi Again, Not sure whats going on. Still no ssd cache drop, but logs are being spammed with the below. Is this because of the h200? I think the dell r510 has sata headers but no sata power, to power the drives. Should I uses a mechanical drive foe cache instead?

August 2, 20205 yr Community Expert Those errors are from an unassigned NTFS device, note the the errors might persist until you reboot even the device was already removed/disconnected.
August 11, 20205 yr Author Hi Johnnie, Its back again. Had a solid week of no failures and now back to daily failures and reboots or array stop/start. I have the Dell R510 12 bay with 2 Internal Bays. The Sata Ports on the motherboard are permanently disabled so I can't use them and trying to get power to them is another challenge as well. I did come across another thread about downgrading the controller firmware to 16.00.00 (I think it was). But can't find again now. Otherwise I'll have to use a Mechanical HDD as a cache drive instead, which seems pointless.

August 12, 20205 yr Author Back again with Diags and logs from after the crash and no reboot. Do I have dodgy ssd? unraidnas-diagnostics-20200813-0811.zip unraidnas-syslog-20200812-2213.zip
