Issues with 428 after upgrade to 6.10.2
I have a 428 with an EDA500 attached. Ever since I upgraded it to 6.10.2 last week. Trying to access admin console has been extremely slow doesn't even work in Chome, including incognito mode. I...
The EDA500 can slow things down because it uses an eSATA multiplier. You are shoving the data for 5 drives over a connection designed for one, and it's a 3gb eSATA, too, not 6Gb. Unfortunately, it's not just anything that directly accesses the EDA that can be slower, as the OS partition RAID extends to the EDA drives. Fortunately, the swap partition does not.
I gave up on the EDA500 and moved to a 12-bay rack-mount unit. I just moved all the drives (maintaining the proper order for each set), and it all just booted and worked. If you have a location with space and where the noise won't bother you, the RR2312 is fire sale priced right now at both Amazon and CDW.
