NV+ V1: fsck running for over 7 days

Hello,

I have exactly the same problem as you.

Have you found a solution at the time?

Thank you for your feedback

MOD NOTE- Split off from original thread which was for NVX (viewtopic.php?f=66&t=63222)

    Did you upgrade your firmware to 4.2.23 before you did the expansion?
  • Thank you for the quick answers!

    I misread, mine is not a NVX but NV +.
    So my latest version is 4.1.10.

    2 TB disks are in the NAS for several months, but I wanted to do a volume check, and each time, fsck stick, still not finished after 5 days ...

    I have a lot of files, including many hard links.

    Do you think it relates to this problem: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=411838
    If yes, how to update fsck.ext3 file ?

    I don't know if that bug affects the newer e2fsprogs used in 4.1.10 (you can see the version in the GPL)
  • Thank you for the link

    e2fsprogs in 4.1.10 firmware is 1.40.11.

    I downloaded the source of 1.42.7 and compiled on Readynas.

    Result: fs check finished in 5 hours!
    I suppose there is a bug in the 1.40.11 version with large volumes or many files or many hardlinks.
