50% success rate. Guess that is the optimistic side of me. Out of 6 drives now, I have found 3 to stay good for more than 40 hours. The 6th drive CC1H factory is crapping out with 2 reallocations so far. This was the RMA'd drive already.
Fortunately, when I shoved the latest drive in the fourth slot tonight, I got this message:
Found free space to expand the volume onto, but expansion cannot occur with an active snapshot. Please disable the snapshot at your convenience, then either reboot the system or reinsert the drive to begin expansion.
I take that to mean no volume expansion has occurred, and I am still happily redundant with the 3 disks that happen to tell me they are still okay. Any Jedis verify that this is the case? If so, Peace of Mind, until I find a 4th happy drive.
