  3. I wanted to take an opportunity to praise Lime Tech for their reliability. I am running 5.0 RC11 currently and have 17 drives plus parity. I recently had a fairly new 3TB drive fail less than gracefully. With just a few clicks I was able to preclear the drive, restore it in the previous position, rebuild the data, and run a parity check. I was quite relieved to see that there everything resumed normally and there were 0 errors on the parity check - no data was lost or damaged, even when the original drive was having intermittent write errors prior to failure. Thanks Lime Tech!
  4. Well I am having the same issue, and glad I found this thread. I am not using the same or similar motherboard. My Unraid is on an AMD platform, using a Phenom x3 705e low energy chip. I have 18 drives, including several 3TB and have noticed this issue on 5.0 rc10 and 5.0 rc11. I previously used some earlier versions of 5.0 but did not really notice the issue - it could have been happening, but I wasn't alert to it because I was using a cache drive which I have since removed. The only thing I have in common with others in this thread is having 16gb of RAM. When I reboot Unraid, it can't write faster than 30-40 Mbytes/sec, but over time it starts to slow down - after a day it's down to about 10 Mbytes/sec, after a few days 3-4 Mbytes/sec, and after a week or more it can get down to less than 1 Mbyte/sec. The screenshot below is me testing a random file copy to Unraid direct to disk9 that's going at 10Mbytes/sec (rebooted yesterday and it's already that slow). As soon as I issued the 'sysctl vm.highmem_is_dirtyable=1' command, it spiked to ~110Mbytes/sec sustained speed, about 11x faster than it was currently moving at and more than 3 times what my max write speed was even on a fresh reboot. Do I need to add this command to my go script? What does this command really do? Is it making the extra ram beyond 4gb in my system worthless?
  5. Update: It's definitely not getting a break from Unraid. I detached it as the cache drive for 24 hours, and it looks like the garbage collection finally ran - at least somewhat. I re-attached it as the cache drive and associated it with a share. Write speed is back up to +/- 60 MB/sec, which is greatly improved over 2.5 MB/sec, but still not like when it was new. The problem remains though, why wouldn't the cache drive ever get to idle? I can't remove it from the array every day to let it run garbage collection.
  6. I ran lsof, and while I don't really understand everything I'm looking at, there were no instances of 'sda' in the output. My cache drive is currently mounted as /mnt/sda. A copy of everything from lsof is attached lsof.txt
  7. I understand that SSD's don't have any moving parts. Unraid always shows it as 'spun up'. The cache drive isn't associated with any shares and the Unraid server is unused/idle for more hours of the day than not. The plugins I have installed are the following version 1.05 Simple Features plugins: [*]Active Streams [*]Activity Monitor [*]Web GUI [*]Disk Health [*]Email Notify [*]Log Viewer [*]System Info [*]System Stats
  8. Problem: The write speed to the cache drive has dropped to 2.5MB/second - basically abysmal. Background: I have been using an OCZ Vertex Plus 128GB SSD as my cache drive and allowing Unraid to serve as my storage space for SageTV to record TV shows (up to 5 at a time plus real-time commercial detection). Currently running Unraid 5.0RC10 with no other issues. I have removed all plugins except for a few Simple Features plugins. Solution: The drive supports background garbage collection, but only when the drive is not in use (e.g. spun down). Catch: Unraid will not allow the drive to spin down, even if I give it the hdparm command to spin down. I modified the spin down for the cache drive to be 15 minutes, but it still doesn't spin down, even when nothing is being used. I've also removed the cache drive from being used by any shares, and it still won't spin down. How do I get the SSD to idle so that it can run its background garbage collection?
  9. Hi all, I've been using Unraid 4.7 for a while now and never had any issues, but I'm having an issue at the moment and I cannot resolve it. I've been getting sporadic read errors and looking at the System Log, it appears I'm getting other hard drive related errors as well. I ran a reiserfsck on the drive that last reported issues, but it came back clean. I have run a parity check and there are 0 errors and 0 read errors in the system log during it. I've also done both short and long SMART tests on any hard drive that gives an error, and they're all reporting no bad sectors, and no alarms. So I'm turning to this forum for support as I am at the end of what I know how to do. I had an error like this before and running reiserfsck returned that I should do a rebuild tree which I did, problem solved and I went on my merry way. However, no such luck at the moment. Attached is my system log. If anyone that has experienced similar issues could advise me, I would greatly appreciate it.
