I have 2 arrays running, the primary consists of 8x 4TB drives in RAID 6 totaling 21.8TB usable. The secondary array is for my old 4x 4TB drives that have some minor errors stopping them being used in the primary array. Usage: My server has 3 main functions: nightly backups for all the PC's in my home Plex server for all my movies and TV series Minecraft server for a few of my friends Backup: The data is backed up to a few 4TB and 5TB external drives that are only connected during the backup.

  4. i tryed DiskPart and followed this guide http://www.windowscentral.com/how-clean-and-format-storage-drive-using-diskpart-windows-10 no luck didnt change anything thanks anyway
  5. yes it seems to be only 5 WD Red drives that are not detected. all other disks work in any slot ill give the DiskPart a go when i can and report back
  6. i just got my new Adaptec raid card and got all exited to install it only to find that 5 out of the 6 WD 4TB Red dives i have aren't detected by the card. all 6 are detected by windows when they are directly connected to the motherboard with sata cables as well as an older rocket raid card. ive tried different diagnostics on the drive and all coming back as ok including SMART all 6 drives are WD Red 4TBthe FW is 7.9-0 (33023) and the windows driver is 7.5-0 (41063) the cable is a Adaptec I-HDmSAS-mSAS 0.5m Cable - 2281200-R the raid card is attached to the backplane of my norco rpc 4224 case the 1 working drive spins up as soon as it is attached but the other drives dont, they almost seem to be in a low power state as the do more than nothing when powered up no mater what port the working drive is in it works fine but on the same port none of the other drives work, i even tested some old 160GB WD drives and that work as expected the working drive works in all slots where the none working ones dont and all the none working drives work fine when directly attached the motherboards sata or to an older raid card using the same backplane. to me it seems that there is an issue with the raid card detecting the drive not the drive or any of the wiring. some of the drives where even detected for a short time before being lost to the raid card and i have been unable to replicate this. i have been in contact with Adaptec about this issue and they concluded that it is defective, and to RMA it to the reseller. but i want to confirm that i cant do anything to fix it as i had a hard time getting it from the reseller but thats a story for another time, putting it short it took 2 months to get it. i have ordered 2 more WD red 4TB drives to test with and they should arrive next week. anyone have ideas?
  7. I thought it was in North America (USA, Canada) because everything come to North America way before Australia

Memberships will normally cost AUD$12 a month (the same as play music which is included) but the introductory price will be AUD$10 per month As a current user of Google play music I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the YouTube icon say "YouTube Red" at no additional cost
