Is RAID-1 Working
Hi all,
Found this formum recently - lots of good stuff.
Question for all the RAID experts out there; I flashed by 323 from 1.02 to 1.03 before using it. It rebooted and from the web interface I was able to select the RAID-1 option. It spent some time formating and once it was done I rebooted again. So far so good.
Transfer around 300GB on to the array (2x500GB) but noticed the other day that a) In addtion to Volume_1 there was in fact a Volume_2 and b) the web interface lists both discs in it, one with 300GB of stored files, the other with none.
Does this mean the RAID1 array is broken in someway? Emailed DLINK tech support a week ago and have heard nothing since.
I've uploaded a screen grab of the staus screen - http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1377/143 … c0ab_o.jpg
Any advice?

Re: Is RAID-1 Working
oh yes.. your screen shot/picture looks somewhat suspicious... RAID array may be broken. You have 2 drives, and each drive/section has 4 lines of info.
On mine (1.03) it only shows 1 drive and here is the info:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HARD DRIVE INFO :
Volume Name: Volume_1
Volume Type: RAID 1
Sync Time Remaining: Completed
Total Hard Drive Capacity: 490402 MB
Used Space: xxxxxx MB
Unused Space: xxxxxx MB
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(I have 2 drives in there.)

Re: Is RAID-1 Working

Re: Is RAID-1 Working
If you install Fonz's fun_plug http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/ you can get telnet access to the box
and from the command prompt type:
'cat /proc/mdstat'
this will tell you how the raid is configured
I have a raid1 setup and this is the result of the above command
# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1]
md0 : active raid1 sda2[1] sdb2[0]

Funny, my Raid1 config looks a bit different (dsb2 sda2), any idea why?
