RDNU4000 w/ 4 WD2002FAEX
Hi
I just bought a RDNU4000 and I'm trying to use 4x WD2002FAEX. With 3 disks the unit boots, but with 4 it boots 2 sec, then shutdown, then reboot, then shutdown, etc.
Is the PSU not strong enough for 4x WD2002FAEX?

- EtzAspirantProbably faulty disk...
Try to check it with HDD manufacturers utility (outside ReadyNAS ofcourse)
Looks like DOA , at least to me... - sirberAspirantThe device can boot with only the drive 4, or drives 1-3.
I booted with drive 1,2,3, created an x-raid2, once it was booted I added the disk 4. Device detected it and didn't reboot. I'm waiting for the resync (drive 1-3), then I'll reboot it to install the latest firmware and see if it still boots. - sirberAspirantworks now.
I booted with 3 disks, set x-raid2, added (hot) the 4th disks. Raid expended automaticly.
I upgraded the firmware and rebooted. Rebooted ok :)
