pool

Hi everyone, I recently got a couple of Intel Optane M10 16gb nvme drives, as I would like to get my dockers moved to them so I can then spin down the HDDs. The weird issue I am seeing is that, whenever I try to add the storage pool ( either via the interface or the script ) , the maximum size...

Hello all, My RS1221+ suffered a Storage Pool crash today so look for advice on how to recover it as the symptoms of this one are new to me. Configuration: Storage Pool 1, Volume 1 = 6 x SSDs in SHR1 Storage Pool 2, Volume 2 = 2 x HDDs in SHR (mirrored backup of Volume 1) Event: Overnight...

Hi all, Is it possible to have an nvme pool and an nvme read cache at the same time? I have one single nvme pool already and one nvme chip over for no use. I don’t expect any major speed increase but just have some use of the second chip. I have an ds423+. Regards Roger

I believe I already know the answer to this question but hoping I am wrong. I need to migrate a DS420+ from 4-8TB SHR with 1 drive fault tolerance to a 3-16TB SHR with 1 drive fault tolerance. I assume since I am decreasing the RAID from 4 to 3 drives it will require a backup and restore, correct?

When I first configured my DS220+, I assigned my two 4Tb drives into a single RAID1 storage pool and single (max size) Btrfs volume. I’m using about 35% of available space. I now know that was a big mistake as I now have a desire for a second volume to serve as an off-site Hyper Backup for a...

I cant delete the pool. Should I just remove all the drives and insert some of the same and larger drives and make a bigger pool?

Morning all. Ive had 8 bays for some time. I now have a 12 bay. Can I create storage pool #1 of 8 drives and storage pool #2 of 4 drives, then in the future move the physical 8 drives from storage pool #1 to an 8 bay and will the 8 bay recognise that its storage pool #1, even if storage pool #2...

Currently on 1821+ with one raid 6 storage pool containing 4x 14 TB HDs, want to add a 2nd volume to this pool with 2x 20 TB HDs. Is it possible to have a separate SHR volume with the 2x 20 TBs in that pool or will it only increase the size of the existing raid 6 volume by adding the drives? Or...

Hello. I have two DS1515+ units I'd like to connect together to make one big storage pool. Looking for either a physical connection between the units - if possible, or a software solution through DSM or some other method. Not really as well versed on this as I'd like. But I've just retired...

I picked up a DS923+ last year, with 3x16TB drives (Seagate Ironwolf). SHR hybrid RAID, 1 drive fault tolerance. I've decided to add the 4th drive.... At this stage I assume I'll be able to either expand the storage pool, or add a second drive fault tolerance.... I have 18TB free in the pool at...
