Help swapping "dead" drive? [Case #15693780]
Hey all, I have an NV+ that is about 2 months old. I fired it up and loaded it with all of our data, backed up all files from PC's etc...it has 4 x 2TB WD Green Caviar drives at this point. All is wel...
Finally found your thread where the TLER discussion is taking place. I assume it's here, yes? viewtopic.php?f=7&t=36560
As rec'd by c3po, I downloaded my NAS logs, and searched kernel.log for TLER:
Now i'm assuming this is the NAS reading the status from the drive and not a limitation of the hardware, is that correct? Another forum discussion of TLER seems to indicate that this utility will not work on the newer WD20EADS drives with the 64MB cache, which is what i've got. Hmm. Thoughts? Running the WD Lifeguard extended test now, so I think i'll go enjoy my day and hope for good news upon my return.
