So now, after 36 hours running a scrub on an EDA500 volume (vol2) the process is only at 4.24%. The volume is 5x WD60EFRX in RAID6 configuration (16TB). This is really un-usable with the current performance. If I lost a drive and it took over 30 days to rebuild the volume the risk is very high to lose the data. I need to understand why it is so slow and speed it up, or I need to find another array that will work properly. The drives in the RN516 are WD30EFRX in RAID 6 and the scrub on it ran to completion in about 18 hours, why is the EDA500 so slow?
