I keep noticing entries in my DNS-321 system log that say: 
HDD1 Hard Drive has Removed
or HDD2....same message -
I started looking for a reason why my smb shares would stop working on both a Windows Pro64 box and a Vista Ultimate 32 box....nfs shares seem to be consistent.  This is the only questionable entry I have found and I noticed it after I did a restart on the unit - the restart did fix the share problem - so far.

Anyone seen the same messages?

Thanks!

I have not seen that and I'm running firmware 1.03.

You should post some specs about your NAS such as firmware, how you have the NAS set up, drives installed (model numbers), etc...  It helps for someone to identify and troubleshoot your problem.

sorry - should have included those specs....
Firmware is 1.03 - the unit is only a couple weeks old and did the upgrade to 1.03 before formatting the drives. 
One 1TB (WD Green) and one 750GB WD drive as 2 stand alone drives - no raid.
Using both smb and nfs shares - only 5 users on the system.  FTP is currently disabled. Turned on LLTP as part of the trouble shooting. iTunes is disabled. 
It is a pretty basic NAS setup - plugged into my switch rather than a router (10/100/1000) -

Plugging into the switch is a better choice in my house.  The router ports are not GBit.

Thanks for posting your specs.  Unfortunately I cannot lend any further assistance since I assume you would prefer good help.  I run a RAID1 and like you have a basic NAS setup.  I have NFS disabled.

For some reason, and it could be a false memory, but I thought I saw folks having problems with NFS and SMB running at the same time.  I'm probably wrong.  I'm sure that since I added this statement, someone will chime in and lay down some facts.

Also, did you format in EXT2 or EXT3.  Doubt it makes a difference but you never know.

Good luck...

P.S. 5 people on this NAS?  is it working fast enough?

[mantolik]

Thanks!
The 5 people are users...rarely more than one or 2 at time.  Fast enough for that and streaming some music here and there! 
Formatted ext3....
I am worried that the error is a hardware failure issue - or a looming one.  Both slots report it and there were mutliple instances.
One other note, I did not go look at the unit before I did the restart....so I do not know what color the drive lights were....hopefully there won't be a next time, but will do so if it happens again!

Nothing like that in my logs, I run a RAID-1 array with 1.5TB drives and firmware 1.03.
