128 GB of 16GB sticks Samsung brand PC3-12800R, DDR3 Registered ECC Processor: Intel Xeon E5-2650 V2, 2.6GHz 8 Core (16 thread) System board: SuperMicro Motherboard X9SRL-F, LGA 2011/Socket R, IPMI For a home NAS, this chassis is huge, able to hold 48 data drives and two boot drives with a couple spaces internally for non-hot-swap drives. The three pools in this one system represent the three NAS systems I had before the consolidation. I have even put together some hardware just to test things out a time or two.įor a while I had three systems, all at once, at home but I am making some hardware changes right now and only one NAS is online. I made some mistakes along the way, learned some and I try to share some of those lessons learned experiences here in the forum. This is the 8th FreeNAS unit I have built for home. This one was built in 2018, but I reused the name from a previous build. What ever the problem is, it has nothing to do with FreeNAS. There is absolutely nothing about what FreeNAS does to the drive that is in any way unusual and nothing about it should leave a lasting impression on the drive. I have taken dozens of drives that were removed from FreeNAS systems and used them for other purposes including installing Windows on them to use them as boot drives. If these drives were sitting un-used for a period of time after being removed from the NAS, it is possible that they suffered some kind of failure.įreeNAS does nothing to the drive other than partition and format it, just like any other operating system. I have a server at work that is running 80 drives and another that is running 60 drives in addition to my server at home that is running 48 drives.
I have been using FreeNAS since 2011 and have not seen anything like what you are describing despite having used several hundred drives with FreeNAS.
