doesntaffect Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) I have the parity check running once a week since I started using Unraid approx a month ago. So far every check returned a couple of corrected errors. Should I worry about this or does this fall under normal operations? My system is not using ECC Memory but I am thinking to change that soon. I am not using an HBA, just 2 SATA 4TB WD Reds + Parity disk and a few NVME SSDs. Would a second parity disk add any value here? I also assume that the fact, that the check runs at the same time as the mover is no issue (looks like mover doesn't run when the check runs?) Where in the Diagnostics should I look to troubleshoot this? ryzen-diagnostics-20201207-0926.zip Edited December 7, 2020 by doesntaffect grammar :) Quote Link to comment

doesntaffect Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Even though the Memory is PC-3200, good advise and I will lower the mem speed. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 3200Mhz is above the max officially supported by your CPU. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Your memory is actually 2133 overclocked to 3200 https://www.gskill.com/specification/165/185/1567584549/F4-3200C16D-16GIS-Specification 1 Quote Link to comment
doesntaffect Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Good catch. I like fast things Haven't touched this topic for years and wonder how Memory is squeezed nowadays. Regarding Parity, does a 2nd parity disk add any benefit here, other than protection for the case a data drive fails? For the new Board I am planing to get these modules: https://www.kingston.com/dataSheets/KSM32ED8_32ME.pdf Looks to me this isnt overclocked memory, right? Planning to use it with a Ryzen 3700x or 3900 (65W), locked to 30W PPT. Edited December 7, 2020 by doesntaffect Quote Link to comment
