Title: DNS-320 with WD2001FASS not working
Post by: lat2011 on December 31, 2011, 10:24:04 AM
I just got a DNS-320 and am trying to use a Western Digital WD2001FASS, 2TB drive in it. Single drive no RAID. Everything appears to work for setup, etc.
But when I try and do a copy of a large number of files I end up getting an I/O Write Error coming up in Windows.
The error message is I/O Error 0x8007045D and the firmware is 2.02.

I took out the WD2001FASS and put in an old 80gig drive I have and it is working great, copied 60gigs over with no issues.

Does anyone know if the WD2002FASS works with the DNS-320? Thanks

Edit : Added error code and firmware version

It's 2.02, the latest one from the site.
I updated it as soon as I unbox the unit.

Too bad no one can confirm if this drive works or not.
Can anyone give me a 2TB drive that they know works?

Hi, I bought recently the DNS-320 (v2.0) with Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB SATA3 64MB WD20EARX.

I have a similar problem (the same initial configuration), from Win XP (LAN access) if try to copy a large number of archives  i get the a similar error (in Spanish  ;) ), however from Mac Os X Lion (WLAN-G Access ) it works, slowly, but works.

Im not sure that the problem be in the model or the manufacturer..

Any idea?

I have a similar problem with a WD20EARS-00MVWB0 (Wester Caviar Green 2Tb) drive.
The funny part is that i have 2 of them installed in the NAS, one works without problems, the other works great until i get over 50% of it filled. After that it starts disconnecting. If i delete files from it to get to about 1Tb free space it works correctly again.

The drive that works is about 1 year older than the one having problems, maybe they changed something in the production method ?
The old HDD's serial starts with "WD-WMA", the new one with "WD-WCA", don't know if it's of any help.

I'm suspecting that maybe the DNS-320 doesn't give enough power for the drive, but of course i don't have any proof for that :)

Anybody had any similar problems ? anybody has any solution or idea I could try ?

P.S. the HDD that works is about 90% filled and never showed any problems, the HDD that has problems is working correctly until i get to about 48-49% filled, after that it starts disconnecting whenever i try to write files to it, but works correctly for reading. I've even reformated it (through the NAS interface).
I've took out the "bad" HDD, put it in my PC and was able to copy everything off of it, I've tried copying files on it (reformatted the drive as NTFS) and didn't have any problems filling it completely. So, the HDD itself is not broken or damaged (also, the SMART test doesn't show any kind of errors)

I'm thinking of replacing that drive with a 1TB WD Green disk i have in my computer, i rather have 3 Tb of usable space than 4tb that i can't actually use.

P.S.2 I'm still on the 2.00 version on the DNS-320, didn't upgrade since I've read there are a lot of problems with the update.

P.S.3 I've tried changing places for the 2 drives but that doesn't help.
