Ultra2 - wanting RAID-0, getting X-RAID2 - help!
Hello there, I've got a ReadyNAS Ultra 2 with one 3TB disk. It got filled with data, so I've decided to buy additional 3TB disk and (sadly) without RTFM, I installed it in the NAS. I was then greeted with a Resync process which took quite some time, and after that I've noticed that instead of having additional ~2,7 TB of space, I actually still have none. It was then that I've realized that the NAS has the X-RAID2 set as a default. I know I've done badly as the user here, but I'd really need your help here, as I've very little time to make it right, as I can't get on with my work until I'm having additional disk space :(. Let's sum up: - The data is very important, cannot delete it. - Cannot backup the data any further, as I've just bought a new disk and I'm out of storage to backup almost 3TB od data. - I'm in urgent need of additional space, so setting the new disk free of its X-RAID2 grasp would be great. What can I do? I'll be grateful for some help here.Solved3.8KViews0likes9Comments
X-RAID2 lost redundancy - NV+ v2
The front LCD and the admin web page both state that the two X-RAID2 drives are unprotected/Not-Redundant. There are no errors in the logs, both drives are 'green' on the info page, and none have any errors. I rebooted the system and fsck on boot. No errors. Why was redundancy lost? How do I recover it? FWIW the firmware is 5.3.103.4KViews0likes11Comments
