Title: NAS NAV2 conflicting message with web interface
Post by: doobre on April 21, 2015, 11:46:28 AM

I had this before recently (April 06), where the NAS NAV reported to "E30-replace drive immediately", but after formatting the raid and restarting through the web interface the unit has behaved and no more warnings have appeared.. and it is working fine so far..

now the same conflicting messages are happening for another NAS unit (of the same type LS-WXL) this one has also had both its drives replaced within the last couple of years..

Rebuild the RAID, if its still showing an error on the disk after this then replace the disk.

Doubtful, one of the disk is failing and probably will. Ensure you keep a backup.

update..
NasNavi2 is now reporting "E30 disk 2 should be replaced immediately".. but the web interface is saying everything is okay..
before it was disk 1 that had the E30 message..

OMG.. setting that up is another "can of worms" that i have avoided thus far...
do the emails it sends give more details than the flashing led's..?

You will get a report everyday that will tell you if your drives have any errors and other emails like power up, so far and so on. Its worth it honestly. Its not hard to setup just need to enter some settings and maybe port forwarding but that doesn't always need it. Just depends on how needy your router is.

okay got it working 'after a fashion and a flapping'..
received this from the dodgey unit..
quote...

[HDD Usage Status]
RAID Array 1 Usage Rate : 1010642116 kbytes / 1938180224 kbytes (Usage Rate 52%)

[DISK error status]
DISK1 0
DISK2 5

and the RED led is flashing three times

If its flashing 3 times, Its most likely a E30 vs a E03, E30 means a bad disk, most likely disk 2, E03 means RTC Errors, I am siding more with the E30, So replaced disk 2 and see what happens.

Earlier in this thread the user 'Bally' mentioned I should "rebuild the raid" and to do that I should rediscover the disk..
but "rebuild array" and "rediscover disk" are not available to me..

Q. so should use the "remove disk" for the possible faulty disk and then the 'rediscover' will appear.?. from then "rebuild array" will be possible..?

Okay, I have swapped the "****" Seagate for a western digital, same size - model WD20EZRX
it was recognized straightaway and now rebuilding the array in raid 1..
hope that's an end to it..

cheers

P.S. - is there any use for the old Seagate drives..?
