Added new HDD - cant see it
Hi All,
I was running twin WD 350gb drives until today when I upgraded Volume_2 to a 1TB drive. I powered the NAS down and installed the drive...I powered it back up, hit the config page and was asked to format the new drive which I did. After a restart of the NAS I have tried everything but can now only access a Volume_1. It doesnt matter which drive I plug into the NAS, I only get a Volume_1...The two drives are different capacity but I dont run a RAID setup per se, so shouldnt it be fine/???
Please help...I need to watch Dexter and due t this issue its currently not possible.
Oh and I guess I should mention Im running v1.05, not keen on upgrading for this issue alone...

What do you mean by that? Do you mean that you can't see the share "Volume_2" in Windows? It could be that the NAS removed this share when you replaced the hard drive and you need to enable this share again in the web pages.
If you have access to the NAS via telnet or ssh you can issue a "mount" command to see if both disks are mounted in Linux. You should see entries for "/dev/sda" and "/dev/sdb" in the listing.
This is what it looks like on my CH3SNAS:
Code:
root@nas:/# mount rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) /dev/root on / type ext2 (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw,nodiratime) /dev/loop0 on /sys/crfs type squashfs (ro) /dev/sda2 on /mnt/HD_a2 type ext2 (rw) /dev/sdb2 on /mnt/HD_b2 type ext2 (rw) /dev/sda4 on /mnt/HD_a4 type ext2 (rw) /dev/sdb4 on /mnt/HD_b4 type ext2 (rw) none on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw) /dev/sdc1 on /mnt/USB type ext2 (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw) root@nas:/#
If you see the entries you can check partitions using "fdisk -l /dev/sda" for disk 1 or "fdisk -l /dev/sdb" for disk 2.
On my NAS it says:
Code:
root@nas:/# fdisk -l /dev/sdb Disk /dev/sdb: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 1 66 530113+ 82 Linux swap /dev/sdb2 131 30401 243151807+ 83 Linux /dev/sdb4 67 130 514080 83 Linux Partition table entries are not in disk order root@nas:/#
You can see the disk size in the output as well so you know that it's the correct drive.
If you can see both drives in Linux everything should be fine and you should be able to share both Volumes again.
