ReadyNAS 204 - adding 2 new drives

Hi all

I have a RN204 (OS v6.4.2) currently with 2 x 3 TB WD red inside. Everything is good, and I have a RAID 1 of 2.72 TB volume - looks as X-RAID also.

I've now bought another 2 x 3 TB WD red. My questions are the following:

1. in the event that their add to the volume existing 1 at a time? Adding the 2nd time the Unit completed the resynchronization or whatever after the addition of the 1st disk.

2. should I turn off the unit before you add the new disks?

I have still no data on the NAS.

Please indicate what is my best way...

Kind regards

Ian

Add the drives one at a time with the unit on.

Wait for the resynchronization to complete for the first disc before adding the second.

    Hello. I installed the trial versions of 2014 CC Photoshop and Lightroom 5.6 (ie the plan of photography) on a desktop computer that I've added a new drive in Windows 7. Everything works fine BUT it's an old computer and I think he could pack up unexpectedly. These things are happening.

That is why three activations. Am I allowed to do? See you soon. Paul

    You can't have three activations. It is simply not possible technically. If and when the time comes, just disable you / disconnect is on one of the old systems and install it on the new. If the system goes belly up, you contact support to reset your account. No need to make it more complicated than that and resist it.

  • Adding a new drive on a Virtual Machine

    Hello

    I need to add a new disk to a virtual machine that runs as an Exchange Server.   Normally, when you add the new drive I would choose the store with the Virtiual Machine.  Unfortunetrly the Datasotre stored on the virtual machine is virtually complete.  What are the implications of the selection 'Specify a location' during the creation of the disc.  I'll always be able to use VMotion?  and how the disk get stored on the selected locvation.  He appears as a vmdk file in a folder named after the Virtual Machine?  Anything else I should look for?

    Thanks for any advice.

    Concerning

    Kevan

    You mentioned already correctly more points:

    • the vmdk will be stored in a folder with the name of the virtual machine
    • vMotion is not affected until all guests have access to the data store
    • According to the snapshots the ESXi version are either created in the home folder of the virtual machine (before 5 ESXi) or in the folder parent of vmdk

  • Adding a new drive of 1 TB Adaptec2610SA and esxi 3.5.0

    Hello

    It's really confusing to me.

    I have a system that works for 2 years now.

    I have 2 drives raided and work in my esx 3.5.0 on my HP Proliant ML115 G5 server. I has been working perfectly without any problems.

    I wanted to add a few more storage so I boughty myself a whole new drive 1 TB and set everything off and put it in.

    Went up in the utility RAID at startup and makes sure that I could see, but not a not joining the existing raid array as I just wanted to use as 1 additional storage room.

    Anyway to cut a long story short, - punt in esxi, has launched the customer infrastructure and went to the storage adapter expecting to see here. NO.

    Therefore a new analysis and NOTHING.

    Put and old 40 GB drive to and bingo she appeared right. (this player may have been formatted, but that's the only difference I could think off the power)

    The new Terabyte disk in and nothing new.

    Any ideas.

    Y at - it sort of command line hardcore scan I can do to force his apperarance.

    Thank you.

    Did you create a new table with the single disk. The controller do not know, but I think that you must have a table before being transmitted.

  • General question about adding storage Readynas 204

    I have Readynas204 on x-raid with three discs of 3 TB sends me some 5.45 TB of storage. Yesterday I added another 3 TB and readynas recognized without any problems but the storage size has not changed. I installed the new drive straight out of the box and I don't think that it should reformat because the drive status is green and the 'Format' button is grayed. The State is green, but that is to say the reconstruction of the volume. My question is I am suppsed to see the storage of 8,38 to size once the volume rebuild process is finished? or I suppsed to see increased storage size rightaway after adding the 4th disc? Thought I should ask this here first before submitting a ticket. Thank you

    You should see the larger size when the rebuild is complete.

  • RN104 - added 4 new 4 TB drives. 2.5 days of resynchronization. Start copying files, or wait until it's done?

    I think I've drunk mostly in the title...

    I just added four new 4TB discs (WD40EFRX) to a vacuum RN104 running the latest operating system. (6.4.0)

    At the start, he started a resynchronization estimated at about 70 hours.

    Is a resynchronization required on an empty set of disks? (If not, can I cancel?)

    If I have to re-sync, can I go ahead and start writing some stuff on the drive is Resyncing? (I'm willing to take whatever the performance hit, there could be.)

    Thank you!

    The synchronization is made at the level of the block of readers, even thoug hthey are empty, they still need to be resynced.

    If it's critical to copy the data across, you can start adding data while resynchronization is in progress. Although you will take a significant performance hit, synchronization and the writing speed. AND, you won't have the advantage of reduncancy until the end of the resynchronization.

    Unless it's critical data, my suggestion would be to wait until the Resync is finished, and THEN copy the data across.

  • Adding a new hard drive on e9180t

    Hi, I have e9180t and I'm considering adding a new hard drive.

    Can my office manage 3 to/6.0 GB/s 64 MB Cache SATA internal hard drive?  I get my full performance out of it?

    I read the possible combinations (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01817977 specification page

    Is there a limit to the capacity of the hard drive?  (up to 2 TB)?

    Can handle a 6.0 GB/s transfer rate?

    I currently have 2 hard drives in the following:

    1 TB - Barracuda (st31000528as) 7200 RPM 32 MB SATA 3.0 GB / s
    500 GB - Maxtor DiamondMax 21 (STM3500630AS) 7200 RPM 16 MB SATA 3.0 GB/s

    If I buy 3 to/6.0 GB/s hard drive and use it as a hard drive, will I use these two hard drives as a secondary hard drives?

    Thank you!

    For those who might be interestd, this is what I found after some digging and calling:

    Since the motherboard that comes with e9180t (ipmtb-tk) is SATA 2, its speed is limited to 3.0 GB/s.   When 6.0 GB/s hard drive is connected, the speed will slow down to 3.0 GB/s.

    You can only use the full 3 TB capabity if your motherboard bios has opportunity to support UEFI interface.  However, most of the motherboards built before 2011 doesn't have this option.  ipmtb-tk is one of them.  However, there is a work around.

    1. go in the bios and check that the interface is set to AHCI (non-RAID).

    2. when the disk partition is loaded, you will be able only to the 2 TB partition.  another partition 750Go seems a separate partition that you cannot change.  Partition the 2 TB the way you want to and install Windows 7 on it.

    3. after that excavation is done, download Seagate Disk Wizard.  Later one of their homepage did not work, however.  You must download this one:

    http://www.seagate.com/staticfiles/support/downloads/discwizard/DiscWizardSetup-14382.en.exe
    

    I don't know why they don't have this default link on their home page when you go to download DiscWizard.

    Once the wizard disk is installed, it will pick up the 750Go that you weren't able to before partition as a new drive and now will allow you to partition.   (Keep the MBR instead of TPG setting, format it to NTFS)

    Once you partition using the tool, Viola!  a new drive with 750 GB of space has been added as a new drive.

  • Explain "Single disk Mode" + added new drive?

    I already read all other potentially relevant posts on this site * (at least, I think I have)

    I have a NMH300 existing with a single WD 1 TB drive installed and configured for RAID Linear1.

    My apologies for asking a question that may be an answer, but after a search on the forums for discussion and review all of the materials user guide I have a few basic questions.

    Is it possible to operate in mode 'disk' with two drives installed? Seems like a stupid question, based on the evidence of the "single drive mode", but it was not clear to me. I would avoid Linear2 RAID b/c I don't want a single drive failure to the ruin of all data in both drives and I want the ability, so I don't want RAID1.

    I think I understand that if I return to linear1 single drive mode and then all of the data are deleted. Fix?

    It would really just be easier to add the 2nd drive and do run in linear2 and avoid all the hassle of a migration and re - build?

    One last question. If I add the 2nd drive and configure it in linear2, the NMH is supposed to keep my existing data on the existing drive and just "add" ability. Fix? (I know that I should come back first, but just ask to make 100%, I understand the specific details)

    Thank you.

    /ctizzle

    Hi ctizzle,

    So that all of these modes don't you will not confuse I recommend that you check this link. Since I have my music and videos backed up to another drive and I use my nmh primarily as a media server, I put mine up like linear2. If you decide to increase your total disk space by adding another hard drive and set up the linear nmh 2 mode as well then I suggest you take a look at this guide.

    Also, choose your hard drives in the tested hardware list.

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks for the reply with the details,

    You can activate the Device Manager to view hidden devices by following the steps mentioned below:

    To work around this behavior and display devices when you click Show hidden devices:

    1. Click Start, point to programs, point to Accessories, and then click command prompt.
    2. At a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

      Set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices = 1

    3. Type the following command a command prompt and press ENTER:

      Start devmgmt.msc

    4. Troubleshoot the devices and drivers in Device Manager.

    For more details: click here

    Uninstall all software and drivers for printers:

    When you need to uninstall a driver completely, the best and safest method is to use the uninstaller of the device (if it has one). If you have added the device to your system with a Setup program (as is the case with most of the graphics card and sound card drivers, for example), you can uninstall it as you would any other program.

    1. Click Start, type uninstall program, and then press enter.
    2. In the uninstall window, which appears, scroll through the list and find your device or drivers. Double-click the entry to start the uninstall process.

    Sometimes devices will not have an uninstall program or the uninstall program will not appear in the list. In these cases, you can use Device Manager to remove the driver completely.

    1. Click Start, type Device Managerand press enter.
    2. Find and double click on the category of the device you want to uninstall (for example, the graphic card would be listed under display card) driver.
    3. Right click on the device, and then click Uninstall.
    4. Windows prompts you to confirm the removal of the device. Click OK to remove the driver.
    5. Once the uninstall is complete, restart your computer as soon as possible.

    Once the above steps are done, click here to download the full software features for your printer and follow the Setup process to start to use your printer again.

    I would like to know if these measures worked for you.  If they did, it's great!  Give us some reinforcements by clicking on the solution and laurels, buttons that help and others see that we have the answers!
    Good luck.

  • has got the biggest hard drive, can I transfer old install to the new drive?

    C: space too small

    My Windows XP Professional is installed on a 10 GB hard drive, there is little room left. I added an external drive more and would like to move the system to the largest disk. I don't have a installation disc. Can I transfer the system and applications to the new drive without losing any functionality and maybe use the old drive (C :) to store data.

    Its not so easy.  It is best to get rid of some of the files on the old drive and move the data files to the new drive.  Try to go first to start | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Disk Cleanup.  Then you can move locations of various data, such as temporary Internet files (in Internet Explorer go to tools |) Internet Options | Settings and click the folder to move and which will move this place).  If you use OE, first back up your messages (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6) and then put in place a new directory on the new drive to something like D:\OESTORE and then go to tools | Options | Advanced | Maintenance | Store the folder and click the button change and set it as the new location.  Then close and reopen OE (DO NOT MOVE MESSAGES yourself! as he will destroy them) and the location must be moved.

    For other space saver, try to do a backup on the new disk directory and copy all update backups that were made (the Blues subdirectories in the Windows directory) and the Windows\inf directory that you can completely roll over to the new drive for backup purposes and you may need to browse to it, if you install a new device , but which will save a lot of space. (the above two suggestions require that you go to control panel |) Folder options | View and activate display files and hidden folders, enable showing protected and OS files and disable the option Hide extensions of known file types).  Move also on other data such as images, documents, music to the new drive.

    So if you have lots of space on C, defrag it.

    But just copy through the old drive to the new and try to start on the new one is unlikely to work.

  • PERC H330 and Raid 5, try adding another SATA drive raid 5 array

    Hi all

    I have one server PowerEdge T330 with 8 slots of disc and have currently 3 SATA drives running a raid 5 configuration.  I have a virtual disk configured for Raid (must).

    The operating system recognizes the disk and is able to use the resources...

    My desire is to add another hard drive to the table (hard disks of the same size, same brand, etc.) with 4 disks without losing any data.

    I looked in the settings of the iDrac and the only adjustment was to add the new disk as a global hot spare or a hot spare dedicated to the virtual drive.

    I also looked in the BIOS and do not see a way to add the new drive.

    Does anyone know how to increase capacity?  I can blow the virtual drive if necessary and start over without problem.  I intend to gradually accomplish this Act until adding 8 disks. (5 times).

    Help!

    Hello.

    Management controllers RAID and tables is not made in the BIOS iDRAC or systems. For the management of the RAID (virtual disks) arrays, you have OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA). If not installed, see the link: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=TK61C once installed, go to-> Storage->-> H330 PERC controllers-> virtual disk--> sub tasks available-> select reconfigure and run-> then check a box to add the fourth disk on the next page. Follow the prompts and allows you to extend your range of RAID 5.

    Which is exactly what started the process.

    I am not really interested in the ePrint and store solution.  However, I am interested in new drivers when they come out.

    It is a tracer of several years old we are out of warranty.  Which excludes me an online chat with someone at HP who could tell me the download link.

    My current driver is 4.8.4.  This seems to be a series of numbering different from what is stated above.  My hypothesis is that the link above includes a newer driver than what I use.

    Anyone know where to get this new driver, or know where I can contact HP directly to find out?

    Thank you!

    The only thing I find is the ePrint and share stuff here.   You can have the best results, post in the forum HP Designjet here, Designjet experts hang out there.
