Duo v1 - help with new choice of HDs please
Hello all I know there are lots of teccie people here who may find my post daft, but I am stuck and would appreciate some help please. I have a ReadyNAS Duo v1. it has 2x1TB hard drives that came ...
UPDATE: Two new 2TB WD RED arrived today. Hotswapped the failing 1TB SEAGATE and its "INITIALIZING" the new drive..
Email said "
Disk initialization started. The estimated time of completion is 17 hour(s) and 39 minute(s), at which time you will be notified via email. You can also check the progress in Frontview in the Volumes -> RAID Settings tab. Please do not shutdown the system while the initialization is in progress."
Q: how long should this take?
I then got an NAS email which said
"A SATA reset has been performed on one or more of your disks that may have affected the RAID parity integrity. It is recommended that you perform a RAID volume resync from the RAID Settings tab ( accessible in the Volumes page => Volume tab in FrontView ). The resync process will run in the background, and you can continue to use the ReadyNAS in the meantime."
What does this mean - i.e. do I do this before the Intializing has finished.. or wait?
Thanks
