I have 3 of these brand new in the box. They sell for $109 on newegg right now. I would like $90 a piece and I'll pay for shipping in the U.S.

Ok so after about 4 hours I used the shutdown command and restarted and everything is showing up again.

I have a keyboard and monitor hooked up to unraid and it has started. But I don't have any folder access or WebGUI access. I have put the drives in the system but haven't added the drives to the array as I haven't had access to the webgui in order to do so. How do I pull the log from the console? Will unRaid start preclearing the disks even if I have not added them to the array yet?

Is there a way to stop the parity check from the command line? I did a clean shutdown and added some new drives however there was a problem with one of my connections and had to do a hard shutdown. Now I assume it is doing a parity check because I don't have access to the WebGUI or folder access.

I would like to buy all 3 if you still have them. Can I pay you via paypal?

Clearly I meant gb/s not mb/s. Anyway I moved everything over to the controller card and everything seems to be working fine.

Do you still have the processor for sale?

I am having a similar problem what do you define as a weak processor? My write speed directly to the cache is around 60-70mb/s however when I write to the user share which has the cache enabled the speed is more like 10-15mb/s.

So I have a build from 2009 before SATA III was around or cost efficient. The motherboard I have is an MSI P43 Neo3-F LGA 775 Intel P43 ATX Intel Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130185 it has 8 SATA II ports and a pcie x16 slot I will be using for the SAS2LP-MV8 card. My original intention was to just use the SAS2LP card for my remaining 4 drives. However my question is should I move all my 2T drives to the SAS2LP card since it support 6mb/s transfer speeds and all the 2TB drives are 6mb/s as well? The next question, if I move all my drives to the card, do the forward breakout cables have to specifically say they support 6mb/s?

Thanks as soon as I get the card and everything is good to go I'll mark this thread as solved. By the way what is the command from the terminal to do a speed check on the hard drives?

Ok so I didn't read enough before purchasing the HighPoint Rocket 640L (which does not work with unRaid), so I'm exchanging it for a Supermicro AOC-SAS2LP-MV8 (I should receive in 3 days). My question is the procedure I need to go through to swap out these two cards. Currently the Highpoint has 3 drives connected all 2TB drives. 1 has no data on it, 1 has about 100GB of data and the other is my cache drive. Do I 1) Move all the data off to another drive, then remove the highpoint card run initconfig, then connect the new Supermicro card and the 3 drives and set them up? OR 2) Can I just swap out the card and connect the 3 drives and UnRaid will realize they are the same drive and everything will be fine? Any Advice to make this a smooth transition would be much appreciated.

I have two issues since I have upgraded to 5.04. 1) Syncback pro no longer has access to read and write files. I have SMB enabled with export as Yes and all shares are public. I did create a user but doesn't seem to matter since all shares are public? I can access the shares and read and write to them directly. But when syncback pro tries to read the share it has access denied. (OK so I've been reading some more on the forums and I did not run NewParms, I am doing that now so hopefully it will fix the permissions issues with Syncback Pro) (Update running NewParms fixed the problem with Syncback, I'll open another thread for my poor write speed) 2) Slow write speeds around 8mb/s, previously it was around 20-25mb/s. I thought adding a cache disk would speed this up. I added a new pci-e controller card (see profile for type) with the cache drive and 2 other 2TB disks are on. All shares are set to use the cache drive. I have attached my most current syslog. If you need any thing else to diagnose please let me know. Any help is much appreciated. syslog-20131228-103821.zip

Yes typing in the ip address works and now the drive shows the correct space, so I guess the file check fix worked.

Ok so I have upgraded to v5.04. I ran check disk through the terminal and it found two errors which were fixed. For some reason the array has started but I can not access the web UI using Media/main it just shows a blank white page. I guess it is running a parity check? So this issue could be fixed but from the info below I'm not sure. I ran the cmds suggested Sorry I don't know how to copy the text so I am typing this, pics are too large to upload. fdisk -lu /dev/sdh resulted in Disk /dev/sdh: 2000.4 GB 2000398934016 bytes 1 heads, 63 sectors/track, 62016336 cylinders, total 3907029168 sectors Units = sectors 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000000000 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdh1 63 3907029167 1953514552+ 83 Linux Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. and /root/mdcmd status | grep -i size Resulted in: Where disk 8 is the one of interest. disksize.8=1953514552 and rdevsize.8=1953514552

OK so I have rebooted several times and it does not fix the issue. I have run a file system check and there were no problems found. So if I disconnect the drive and run initconfig cmd will it rebuild the data that was on that drive onto the other drives?
