Readynas 104 drops out when copying to it
I have a readynas 104 configured with four 4tb drives in raid 5. I've managed to copy about 6tb onto the device without issue but now whenever I go to copy something onto the box, lets say a single 4...
Another update...
So 5 days of my computer being remotely accessed by 3rd level support so they could look at the Readynas 104 and they couldn't work out what was going on... they do at least agree that something is wrong with the box though. I've now been escalate to R&D in the States... I think I did actually talk to one of the developers already... he wanted me to do a defrag!!! like WTF!!! The box had been alive for only 6 days, I'd done no deletes, it was at 70% capacity and I'd only done two bulk copies, in theory all of the files should be contiguous. Talk about trying to pass the buck and waste even more of my time. I should've stuck with the Buffalo NAS... basic, but at least they work.
So I now have a boat anchor... the IO to and from the NAS is so messed up I can't even stream from what is already on the box... another one of the tests we did was to copy from one share on the Readynas to another share on the same Readynas... FAIL!
