Hi, does anyone have the same problem or know the fix?

I have two Seagate hard drives in the DNS 323, 1 x 500gb, another 1 x 250gb, they are sepreate volumns, the problem is if there is a power failure, or simply turn the unit off and on again, only one of the hard drive is detected and accessable, in order to fix this, I have to soft reboot the harddrive from the web GUI under system " restart" then both drive are detected and no problems.

This happens every single time when there's a power failure or turnning off the system.

This is fine with me however when I'm not home, my parents could never figure it out, so I want this issue to be fixed permanently. Any ideas?

Thanks guys.

I have seen same symptoms on regular pc's in some occasions.
You could add some lines to your fun_plug which will check if /dev/sdb* exists or if some specific partition is mounted, if not then do reboot.
I also suggest you to set some sleep parameter before you reboot, which will help you to remove these lines if you don't need them any more.

For example

Code:

#!/bin/sh
if [ ! -e /mnt/HD_b2/some_file_on_your_hard_to_detect_hdd ]
then
  sleep 600
  reboot
fi
