ReadyNAS Duo v2 - Replacement HD
Hi Ive had my Disk 1 show a error of 'Dead' in System --> Info window so I have replace with a Seagate ST31000524AS drive. Problem I have is Im not sure its synchronizing as I still see the sam...
There should be some messages in the log when the NAS detected the disk insertion and then started to resync.
If you aren't seeing those, try removing the new disk and then restart the NAS. Then reinsert the new disk, and see if that works.
Sometimes when a drive fails the NAS disk drivers will declare the SATA port as down. In those cases the disk replacement isn't detected.
Hi StephenB
Thanks for replying
It looks like its rebuilt disk 1 but now is telling me disk 2 could be faulty but the status for disk 2 is OK.
Disk 1 is showing a yelow circle with a red cross through it and status is inactive.
What are you seeing in the log?
- Ive tried to attach a snap shot of the log as well.Info
