Whats the proper way to add WD EARS drives to the pool with WHS v1 and PP3? Not using any as a system drive. Just leave the jumper off? Do I need to align them once they are added?

EC posted:Set the jumper per the directions to make it a non-advanced-format drive (or whatever they call it), then install as usual and add it to the pool. These are drives that I have been using for a while now, do I need to delete the partitions first or anything else?

Got WHS installed this weekend, Add-ins installed and it's running like a top. Moved over most of my data, then realized I forgot to set the jumpers on my 2 WD Green EARS drives

So I got WHS all set up and went shopping, come home and the motherboard had poo poo itself. Godspeed Asus p4c800-e deluxe, you were a awesome board. Thank goodness newegg had a awesome shellshocker today.stgdz posted:I meant to say 5tb and I am recovering my important files now. Check the BIOS setting for hard drive priority, maybe it's detecting it funny.

Does anyone have any opinions on defrag programs made for WHS? Good/Bad?

So iTunes 10.5 broke DAAP with firefly media. It was fixed in mt-daapd but it seems nobody does a compiled version for windows. Anyone know of a fix or another app that I can run on my WHS box that works with iTunes?

I had to do a server reinstall of WHS v1 because of a dying hard drive last week, and now Home server SMART can't see any SMART data from my Supermicro AOC-SASLP-MV8 and just gives the blue circle with the question mark in it. This isn't the first time I've done a reinstall of WHS v1 and I used the same drivers I use every time. Hard Disk Sentinel can see the SMART data just fine though. Why the heck can't home server smart see it? Edit: Solved this. Found some slightly newer drivers and all is fine. Suniikaa fucked around with this message at 18:01 on Apr 5, 2012 |

Anjow posted:Now my server is telling me that the system volume is failing (though all works fine). I can't see the option to remove it (and get the data onto the other discs before I reinstall), what is the procedure to replace it? I assume I've got to waste another 48h on it reorganising all my data, but do I just totally remove the system disc, insert a new one, reinstall, then put it in afterwards? If so, will it discover the data on it? You can give this a shot http://www.mediasmartserver.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6826

Esk1 posted:Still using WHSv1 on a outdated single core celeron. The whole thing is just a data tank and I think I'll have to go this path because I want a drive pool. Having 8 2tb drives is just getting ridiculous. I do not look forward to the upgrade process when I finally bite the bullet. I just updated from WHSv1 to WHS 2011 + Drive Bender and it was pretty painless. Drive Bender allows importing disks while leaving the existing file structure in place. Worth the 20 dollars in my opinion.
