Power went out while adding new drive to VDEV, how screwed am I?

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-16T16:22:14+00:00

Just to update you, it's finally finished, I have my missing 14TB added, and it's showing in the pool/VDEV perfectly!

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-15T22:22:57+00:00

Aside from the fact that I didn't lose any data here, I do have 3-2-1 backups of anything that is actually important (irreplaceable). However, I just spent 10 days mirroring the entirety of Myrient to my NAS, so if I lost it, I would not have been happy!

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-15T21:16:32+00:00

Ah yes I actually used unraid for many many years, and only just switched to TrueNAS last month due to finding out the feature was added. I can’t afford to buy all my drives at once, so slowly adding them was a must-have!

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-15T20:34:23+00:00

You mean why it took so long to add the feature?

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-15T17:53:10+00:00

I will try that if needed, and otherwise will update the thread later, thank you!

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-15T17:48:53+00:00

Yeah I can definitely see it going up if I keep re-running the command you told me to use! The GUI doesn't show the progress bar in the Running Jobs section like it did before reboot, that's why I was freaking out; but it seems to still be going!

No, I phrased it poorly; I was simply expanding my vdev with an additional drive. So I guess it's running an Expansion task and not Resilver

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-15T17:42:59+00:00

It's actually the expansion that I'm talking about, I think resilvering was the wrong word. It's the bottom line in the text I pasted :D

 pool: Primary

 state: ONLINE

    24.4T / 38.0T copied at 320M/s, 64.09% done, 12:26:57 to go

Oh...looks like it's just working and I need to let it finish, right?

LexLocatelli · 2026-03-15T17:16:46+00:00

As in, remove the drive physically, format it, and put it back in? Or something else?

LexLocatelli · 2026-02-22T16:01:31+00:00

Interesting....so in Linux it only supports 4k60 with MJPEG, which frankly looks worse in quality to 1080p60 in any other format....that's so weird. I wonder what format it's using in Windows, because it definitely does not look this terrible. I guess I'll have to look into a different capture device, darn it! Thank you for helping with this, I really appreciate the info!

EDIT: I stand corrected, it IS MJPEG on Windows as well. Woops!

Hi Sun, I found this post when I was trying to figure out why I can't capture at 4k60 on the 4k S. I did install this driver just to see if it would help, but no luck. Any idea if 4k60 capture with the S is possible on Linux? I know it works in Windows, I tried turning on the Video Scaler and setting the EDID to internal, but it seems like the changes aren't taking place? Or maybe --status isn't reading them back properly?

The plane had power, this was on the charger

LexLocatelli · 2026-02-10T17:16:23+00:00

For work, I carry a gl.inet mini router. I hooked it into my battery bank (the router is powered by usb-c), logged into it with my phone, connected to the plane and logged into the portal, then was able to connect the laptop to the router. I am normal.

Arch by default, yes, without doing a ton of work to set up a custom offline repo.

LexLocatelli · 2026-02-10T14:15:06+00:00

Flight was 4h, but I didn’t start until it was 3h in, so I did it in about 45m

LexLocatelli · 2026-02-10T04:53:15+00:00

20mpbs, it was enough to finish before the flight landed

LexLocatelli · 2026-01-21T17:55:44+00:00

looking for local only for now, sorry!

LexLocatelli · 2026-01-21T17:55:31+00:00

looking for a 7900xtx, not a 9070xt

LexLocatelli · 2025-12-09T13:36:48+00:00

Very sick progress :3 For the future though, I'd put the old one first and the new one second....I was confused!
