How many EDA500 can a RN314 handle?
I have an RN314 with 4 x 4TB WD40EFRX, and one EDA500 attached to the READ eSATA port with another 5 x 4TB WD40EFRX drives. I know the front eSATA port on the RN314 is shared eSATA / USB 2.0 - but is there anything to prevent plugging another EDA500 in there? Has anyone tried this?RN10222D Vertical Expansion - First Time
I'm expanding from 2TB to 4TB on my RN102. I purchased compatible drives (Hitachi Deskstar NAS HDN724040ALE640). The system is running X-Raid Raid 1. I am not clear on how to know if the system is syncing - other than looking at the logs. When I do look at the logs, there are only two entries related to this event - - Volume data health changed from Redundant to Degraded. - Disk Model:TOSHIBA DT01ACA200 Serial:64UTP72GS was removed from Channel 1 of the head unit The volumes settings shows only one drive present (the one I did not remove). The new disk seems to be spinning based on the sound it's making (long buzz, click, short buzz). The power light is blinking in two-blink intervals and the led for the drive I replaced is blinking. Can someone tell me if I'm doing something incorrect or if there's another way, other than the software, to determine if the drives are syncing?Solved
