Hi,
I have a HP N40L microserver with 4x 2tb drives. I setup a zraid 1 when I set it up so it gave me about 6tb of storage. I then copied 5.95 tb of data to the drive (videos, etc) all copies of data that can safely be destroyed.
This morning, I shut down the server, removed one of the drives & booted it back up. I didnt get an email notification (which is setup), I logged into the webgui & it didnt mention that the raid array was missing a disk.
When I dug deeper into the view volumes, I do see that it says degraded. I just thought that Freenas would have notified me that I lost a drive. Is it supposed to do that?
I am planning on taking another 2TB drive, putting it in, rebuilding, then removing another drive & putting the original one I removed back in, merely to test how well its rebuilding, etc.
Thanks,
Rich
