D5 now hibernates mid copy, even with it set to disabled
Posted: 30 May 2021, 21:45
I have never had so many problems in trying to copy just 8TB.
I now have five disks in it and have nuked the old RAID and set a new one up.
I am using Silverstack to copy my video files as it does checksum.
However, after about 90-120m the D5 seems to hibernate.
The shares are in the Finder.
When I click on one it never updates.
I cannot eject it.
I cannot reboot.
What I have to do is turn the D5 off, wait for macOS to display the Didn't Eject error message.
When I plug it back it, all works okay - for a while then it does it again.
Any ideas please?
I know that this unit is half the cost of the cheapest alternative, a Qnap, however, it is still a large amount of money to spend on something that is supposed to give me peace of mind over my data.
Thanks.
