Fan Loud
Hello,
I have recent issue with my setup. I start my readynas RN102 and the fan is loud.
I have investigate problem and see in monitoring page one of disk with no temperature display.
The faulty disk has been removed from the box and fan is now silent. If i plug it again, the fan becomes loud again. I have tried to reboot but no sucess, the fan is loud again with the sceond disk connected.
DO you think this disk is out of order or can i update something like firmware to resolve issue ?
The model is old but in compatibility hardware disk (Seagate ST1000DM003), can i changed it for a new reference like ST1000DM010 associated to the first disk of the raid (ST1000DM003 too) ?
Thans for your help.
Regards

I don't think this is about the ReadyNAS firmware - but just in case, what firmware are you running?
Hi, When you plug the second disk in, it maybe doing resync. If so, Fan may be loud. If after volume is synced, fan is still loud, try to set the fan mode to 'Quite' on UI>System>Performance>Status.
Hi,
I was thinking update the firmware of hard drive. I don't think this issue ils relatée to readynas.
The fan has always been setup on silent.

I doubt that updating the drive firmware will matter.
Are you seeing a rise in disk temps when the fan is loud? I realize that you aren't always seeing the temps reported.

Do you have disk spindown enabled? I believe you will see this behavior when a drive is spun down.
If i replug the faulty disk, the fan is loud (3200 tr/min) after few minutes and I see :
- 25 °c for first disk
- 122°C for second disk
- 50°C for CPU
I have disabled spin down but same result.
If I remove the faulty disk, the fan becomes silent after few minutes (700tr/min).
I a using this setup since 4 years without a problem... Strange
Do you think i can associated the fist disk st1000dm003 with a st100dm001 (same capacity but not in hardware compatilibty) to rebuild X-RAID ?
I am runing the last stable firmware 6.9.5
