NV+ V2 Disk Failure Detected (Case #17738357)
Hello everyone! I recently purchased the ReadyNAS NV+ V2. I was really excited about finally having a mass storage device on our network, but since setting it up, we've had nothing but problems. ...
Handling of the drives can have a severe impact on the reliability of a drive. An NAS is more stressful on a drive than a PC, which may be on 8-10 hours a day, but an NAS is on for 24. Then when you resync the volume there is constant drive activity for hours on end which will stress drives. But as to directly impacting a single drive, I don't see how. In fact, that's most likely when a drive will fail - during or immediately after a resync.
