How long is that rebuild going to take. On a Friday none-the-less -
@JaredBusch RAID10?
-
@JaredBusch : And nobody asked you the important question: Do you have a spare?

These can be picked up at best buy for $100, no real need to hold a spare....

That is the newest drive in the NAS too. That is what really has me swearing at it.

Yeah.... that would tick me off a bit. . .

@JaredBusch at least it should resilver pretty quickly, and you have a very high chance of success.

The NAS is only a local backup target. It is not critical. This is also just my home unit.

Well hopefully. It is a Buffalo LinkStaion Quad. It is from 2008.
-
yup it be dead drive.. solid red light on status after power cycle.
-
Has anyone tried to create an SSD cache in a raid 0 (2 drives) to support a raid 10? Is this possible?
-
@wirestyle22 You mean that the cache itself is striped across drives? Can be very dangerous, depending on the type of cache (read/write).
-
For some reason there are only now 2 DosEquis left in the fridge.

Didn't you have the same thing happen last year?

Yes and this is the replacement drive. Never noticed it was apparently old stock

Had something similar with a Netgear SOHO NAS. Drives in a specific slot kept failing. Never solved this, the device is no longer used.

Let me fully explain how I'm viewing this so if I'm wrong about something you guys can correct me. The way I view SSD caching is similar to the way I view memory. It's like faster, more expensive temporary space. So You have 4x 4TB hard drives in a raid 10. Would you be able to use SSD caching to support that raid 10?

Sure, with a RAID implementation that can handle this, like ZFS (just for example). But be double sure about what you plan to do. When your write cache goes south due to a drive failure or a power outage, data will be lost.

Yeah but only active data. Not entire drives.
