ReadyNAS Pro 4 disk thrashing
Hi,
I've got a ReadyNAS Pro 4 that has 4 x 2TB drives in. They are currently approaching capacity - I think there is at most 260GB free.
In the past few weeks I've noticed that frequently the unit will be thrashing away for a good 5 minutes or more when I load my media centre software. While it's doing this the software is pretty much unresponsive. I don't think the software has changed, and the only configuration change I've made that pre-dates this thrashing by several weeks was enabling disk spindown (30 minutes).
Do ReadyNAS's normally exhibit this sort of behaviour when they approach full capacity?
