Where should I set the timeout?
Is it possible to format the discs with ext2 in a pc so that ch3snas wouldn’t have to format it? – or can it only use it’s own formatted discs?

- use firefox
- set time-out to 999
- make sure there are NO partittions or anything else on a HDD.
- try first 1 HDD than 2nd HDD than do both HDD’s ..

if upgraded please reset to factory defaults, than format

Hi,
I just installed this firmware on a new CH3SNAS, after I was unable to format my harddisks (2x Seagate Barracuda 1TB) with the original firmware.
Now after the update it still freezes at 94% of the format process…
Is there any way to work around this issue?
I slowly loose the patience waiting 30 minutes every time just to see a freeze at 94%…

Thanks.

Hi Dennis,

I’m running a CH3SNAS with ffp 0.5. Nice piece of hardware. Anyway, when trying to set up smartd to send me a warning mail in case one of the HDD does not pass a S.M.A.R.T. check, I fail. Totally. I guess you can’t help me with telling me how to send mails with the CH3SNAS. But this would be a feature request: Integrate smartd into the firmware and make it an option in the front end to S.M.A.R.T. check periodically and send a mail in case of errors.

Would make the box as perfect as I could imagine.

Regards
Ben

Hello,

I’m having a big problem. I’ve flash firmware 1.00 and after reboot the CH3SNAS asked to reformat my drives that were formated in JBOD mode and loaded with my stuff. I declined and flashed back version 1.04RC6.

Now I can’t get access to left drive content (I managed to access the content of the right bay drive). I’ve install IFS Drives to read the drives content. IFS showed me 3 partitions. IFS was in read only mode so it didn’t change anything.

Help I much appreciated (and needed).

hell, the FTP server in old firmwares is better…. why?

I use 1.04RC5, FTP is limit to 2000 files/folder and the worst, multiple folders for a user dont work!!!

One user have only one folder in ftp server ( can not create two forders PUB / UPLOADS… for exemple… ) this problem force me to use old firmwares…
