ReadyNAS appears to boot by itself
Yesterday I took my ReadyNAS Pro Business offline for a careful dust-cleaning. Since booting up fifteen hours ago, it has run a boot cycle every few hours. Here's the Log screen: Tue Sep 2 06:09:1...
I had never thought about the drive types and temps. They are all 3TB drives.
I have four Seagate 3TB drives (ST33000650NS) and one WD (WD30EFRX, I think that's a "red.") The Seagates have between 15,000 and 18,000 hours on them and the Seagate has about 6,000 hours.
Generally the Seagates are between 38C and 42C. The WD barely gets to 32C.
Do you think that the more frequent higher fan speeds are the result of the drive manufacturer's higher temperatures? I'd hate to spend the money on replacement drives just to experiment.
Thanks for your input. It's something to think about.
