Terastation died
shmokes:
I think maybe he means to ask how much of that 3.5 TB server is taken up by this website.
patrickl:
Like ahofle I fail to see how a single broken disk can be a problem. You remove the damaged disk and insert a new one. Of course if the hardware fails exactly at that moment you might have a problem, but that can't hardly be the norm.
Maybe you had 2 broken disks? I broke two disks on RAID configurations twice.
In the first instance it was one some self built server with a server SCSI RAID card that no longer had supporting drivers. It was a nightmare and in the end I simply went back to a back up.
The second time was on my NV ReadyNAS. I repaired the two disks with some Seagate utility (after hooking them up to a PC), put them back in the ReadyNAS and the RAID repaired itself. Obviously I swapped out the broken disks after the RAID 5 was restored (Actually I replaced all disks).

I lost a drive in a RAID 1 setup, yes an 'effin RAID 1 setup (don't ask)...and I was able to virtually mount the Raid array and DE-STRIPE the data and move it to another drive.

I suspect you mean RAID 0?

Doh! yeah, RAID 0.
Donkey_Kong:
I think I may have warned some folks about the Terastation...maybe no one was listening.
You may want to do what I did...if it's covered. Send it in for warranty. Next, battle with them over email for a few months until they send you a new/refurbished one...then SELL IT and never look back!
Good Luck!
