NV+ slows after 15-20 minutes [SOLVED]
I am experiencing some performance issues with my NV+ It is used for storing drive images created using the Acronis Drive Image 2010 CD. Backups work fine, the issue arises when I come to do a rest...
I agree there is some mystery on why the performance dropped off, and why upgrading to 4.1.13 fixed it when the other reinstalls you tried did not.
XRAID uses standard raid underneath. In the specific case of the v1 (Sparc) systems, the underlying RAID uses a dedicated parity disk. That disk has no data partition. That mode of RAID is sometimes called RAID-4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_R ... els#RAID_4), though here we usually call single redundancy with more than 2 drives "RAID-5" on all platforms.
That parity disk is normally the disk in the highest slot number at the factory reset. Though if you have moved disks around, you might have accidentally put in in a different position.
The newer NAS distribute the parity blocks across all the disks (which is certainly RAID-5).
