RN104 - Always on the go at certain times
Hi all,
Been long time since I was on last and amazing how quickly times passes before realising you can still get great advice from here. This is why I am posting here as I am at my wits end.
Every evening around 8pm (give or take 30 mins) my RN104 starts spinning and constantly spinning for hours and stops me accessing Plex on the NAS as the server is constantly in use.
I need to knwo what it is doing - is ther any way to find out what it is doing. Even right now as I type this post the light is flickering lik mad sicne 9pm but may have been spinning earlier. Sometimes the only way I can stop it is by re-starting the NAS or there are times that just re-starting the Plex app on the NAS will do the trick.
This is a complete head wrecker for me and causing me a lot of grief in trying to figure out what is causing it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
NJP

- You mean your RN104's FAN is going fast at about 8pm? When at that time, can you click UI>System>Performance, see the FAN's speed, then move muse to disks to see the disks' temperatures.
Could do you please send logs? I want to check what NAS is doing at that time.
It should be NAS is doing something at that time, it cause disk temperature increase, then cause FAN speed up.
How do I send all logs to ReadyNAS Community moderators?

No its not the fans and it is definitely the disks as the blue LED flashes like mad.
