BSOD when backing up files to a DNS-321
« on: January 26, 2009, 08:28:45 AM »
Since I moved from using a Buffalo NAS to a DNS-321 with 2x1TB drives (raid) I've started getting consistent BSOD failures. The system is a Windows Server 2003 SP2 and the DNS is running Firmware 1.00.

Has anyone else seen this type of issue?

Any suggestions?

What exactly does the BSOD say?

There are many possible causes for a BSOD and the text of the BSOD usually indicates what triggered it - it might also be an idea to provide details on how you're doing the backup - is it a backup utility, is it W2K3's native NTBackup?

I would guess that the chances of your problem actually being caused by the NAS at extremely low - as far as Windows is concerned, it's just another network share out there, pretty much like your Buffalo NAS was - and that it is more likely to be the backup software or perhaps your network card hardware/drivers.

For what it's worth - I backup my Server 2K3 to my NAS (DNS-323) and have never had it bluescreen - I've used Symantec's BackupExec and EMC Retrospect

RAID1 is for disk redundancy - NOT data backup - don't confuse the two.
