    Unhealthy disk - my bad

    Yea, it has shifted to a warning now. Drive pool did re-balance everything off the drive, so it is nice to see that is working well.

    Unhealthy disk - my bad

    I am away from my server now, but it was a SMART error code 0. I think the error resulted because too many read attempts, something like 13,000
  3. This was from an actual alert. Anyway, how do you "select" an account, because I put two in the email field separated by a semi colon ; ?
  4. So in the stablebit scanner notifications address area I put in two emails as follows: jimfake@gmail.com; jimfake@mydomain.com I got the email to jimfake@mydomain.com but not to the gmail account, any ideas why?
  5. OK, so one of my Sata cable broke off while my server was on, and I tried plugging it back in while the server was on. I finally had to put in a new cable. The disk is fine and I can browse files etc. Now I am seeing a stable bit error that the disk is facing eminent failure. I ignored the warning but It is still showing as unhealthy. Will this error eventually go away? Can I reset it somehow?
  6. Yea it was totally robocopy's fault. I edited the script so it won't back up system files and now the folder doesn't disappear. Drivepool itself has been working well and gives me peace of mind knowing my stuff is duplicated. I love that I can add any drive lying around to the pool, so much more flexible then raid!
  7. OK, then I am good, the folder was always there, it was just hidden. For some reason my robocopy script was, and still is when I run it again, setting that folder as a 'system' folder, maybe because it was trying to copy the recycle bin. EDIT: I can confirm this is a robocopy issue. More info here: Thanks
  8. I poked around online some more and was able to view the folder by running the command: attrib -s -h G:\ServerFolders\Pictures\FamilyPCNewPictures For some reason there was a 'System' attribute on the folder and this fixed it However still seeing the following only on the drivepool: Under the Server Folders and Hard Drives --> Hard Drives Tab I right clicked on the DrivePool G and ran Check and saw the following error that I tried to repairThe first NTFS boot sector is unreadable or corrupt. Reading second NTFS boot sector instead. All NTFS boot sectors are unreadable or corrupt. Cannot continue. When I run this check on the 2 physical drives that make up the drivepool they checkout fine, is this normal behavior?
  9. So you want me to recover it from the disk pool or in one of the hidden "PoolPart.xxxx" folder? It is not visible, but under the CMD prompt I can see it in the drive pool e.g. G:\ServerFolders\Pictures>cd FamilyPCNewPictures G:\ServerFolders\Pictures\FamilyPCNewPictures>dir Volume in drive G is DrivePool Volume Serial Number is F0A3-6718 Directory of G:\ServerFolders\Pictures\FamilyPCNewPictures 09/30/2012 08:28 PM 87,855 10-1-sched.htm 06/16/2013 09:40 AM 1,313,238,588 album-29991081-downloads-pt2.zip 05/18/2014 08:29 AM <DIR> All Pics Where is this data recovery tool ? I could not find one on my OS.
  10. So I just installed Drivepool 1.x (latest) on my WHS2011 server as well as the plugin:Ordered File Placement 1.0.5.6 for StableBit DrivePool 1.X . Also Stablebit Scanner as well. I added two New 4tb drives F: & H: and had drivepool format them and add them to the pool, and it created the drivepool at G: I set the files to duplicate in real time Under the Server Folders and Hard Drives --> Pool Tab -->Balancing I checked the bottom option Ordered File Placement option as it was not checked. I created some users and folders and subfolders under the Documents Pictures folder a) FamilyPcNewPictures and OldPics Then and I ran Robocopy from one of my PC's to start backing up Documents and pictures. It ran fine and backed up my docs and oldPics, It seemed to backup the FamilyPcNewPictures as well, but then I noticed the FamilyPcNewPictures folder was no longer under the pictures folder Under windows explorer I tried to re-create the folder but it said the "This destination already contains a folder named FamilyPcNewPictures" Do you want to merge folders - I said Yes, but the folder could still not be seen? I turned on viewing of hidden files but still no luck. Under the Server Folders and Hard Drives --> Hard Drives Tab I right clicked on the DrivePool G and ran Check and saw the following error that I tried to repair The first NTFS boot sector is unreadable or corrupt. Reading second NTFS boot sector instead. All NTFS boot sectors are unreadable or corrupt. Cannot continue. I tried to run repair but got the msg "Cannot repair the hard drive... G hard drive is damaged and cannot be repaired view Support Information to help resolve this issue What do you recommend? Note I am just early in the game so If need be I could destroy the pool etc. Thanks.
