Title: RAID 1 Configuration loosing data after re-sync
Post by: Aidan on December 21, 2007, 02:06:33 AM
Folks,

My 323 is running firmware version 1.02 with two Samsung 320Gb drives in RAID 1 configuration.

I recently had a drive failure. I replaced the drive and the DNS323 detected the new drive, formatted it and resynced the data. Everything going good, or so I thought.

I originally had a data directory in the root which contained two sub-directories for documents and templates. After the resync, the data directory is there, but the documents and templates sub-directories are missing. When I checked each drive individually in the 323, neither of them showed the missing sub-directories. Both drives are still showing the correct amount of used space - about 26Gb.

I tried to re-create the templates sub-directory and got an error back saying that I can't create a directory as one of the same name already exists.

Can anyone shed any light on how to get my data back? I do have some of it backed up but there is still quite a lot that I would really like to get back, not least of which email files.

Thanks in advance

Aidan.

Hi,

I had the same problem with a file that had gone missing, tried to copy the file again into the same location but was told that a file already existed.

The only way I could get back the space and location was to reformat  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

I only had one file but the thought that I could loose more files in this way really disturbs me.
I know this is not what you wanted to here but I hope that D-Link look into this problem.

I would recommend firmware version 1.03

Are you using any network Access rules for users or is it set to R/W for all users (default)?
