    update for StableBit Scanner

    in General

    Posted

    I am a long-time user of StableBit programs - but am confused by version #s :

    Currently running Scanner version 2.5.3.3191

    Update from July 2018 is version 2.5.2.3190

    Which is in fact the more recent version - judging by the "numbers" it looks as if I'm running a "newer" version than the current update.

    PS - I try to avoid beta versions of anything - don't have the time or expertise to beta test...

    Now I have 2 drive pools?

    After some misadventures with my WHS2011 attached USB drive enclosure, I find I now have a separate (empty) pool (original "H" pool and a new (unwanted) "S" pool - empty of content, using a single HDD.

     

    How do I get rid of this intruder and give back the drive to my original pool?

    What kind of speed should I expect from Scanner?

    At the moment I think the enclosure is set up/connected USB 2. 

    Sorry - but I will be out of town and away from the system for at least a couple weeks:  I can remote in via my PD connected to the server, so will at least hope to get all the current drives "checked" over that period of time, then be in a position to restart server, check BIOS setting to be sure I really have USB3 enabled, and start again from there.

     

    This all started (i.e.everybody was playing nice) until about 6 weeks ago when I had an old (>3-4 years) 1.5 TB drive go bad, overheat, and die.  I've replaced it and actually managed to migrate all the data from the remaining 3 drives in that enclosure, however have had recurring problems since. 

     

    And yes, some of my data is photos (jpeg and a few mpg) but the bulk of data stored is videos (iso) files that are big and space-hungry.

     

    Oh, if only HP still made a MediaSmart server which was soooo reliable - but it's motherboard dies (after 7-8 years) and so I built my own server.  Woe is me.

     

    I'll reactivate this message chain when I can get back hands on.

     

    In the mean-time thanks for all your suggestions and directions!
