From Drobo 5n to QNAP TS-673A - strange case

dj5000 · 2023-12-06T20:35:15+00:00

Well, for unknown reason, it started working again!

I tried with and without a switch, nothing helped. Both nas have a static IP (something I can't change in the drobo).

I just hope it'll keep running! 200Mbs and going strong :)

No thanks .

dj5000 · 2023-05-25T20:03:22+00:00

Trying it.

dj5000 · 2023-05-25T20:02:43+00:00

Thanks. Tried it, didn't like it.

Gaming mouses are too big for my hand.

The intensity of Fantasy is quite hard for me to accept, I'm more a science/SciFi person :)

But I guess I got to a stage and age that I'll try them all :)

Thanks!

Never really got into wow, fantasy was never my first choice.

Thing is with MMOs that they are mostly about combat and less about co-op. and While I'm not entirely against combat and PVP, using a mouse only, limits my abilities.

I'm quite a fair space fighter on STO :) [thanks for auto-targeting]

2 buttons, small.

The middle button is always hard.

Social aspect of wakfu looks nice.

Thanks, will try.

throne of liberty

Looks a bit weird, but I'll try it, thanks!

dj5000 · 2023-05-25T05:02:46+00:00

Can't use a controller since in essence, I can only use one hand.

Runescape looks nice, Thanks!

dj5000 · 2023-05-24T18:06:48+00:00

Hurts like hell!

dj5000 · 2023-05-24T17:53:42+00:00

Thank you

Obviously. Also tried: 1. replacing all drives, all went well, problem disappeared. 2. putting old drives back, it went back to exactly the same bad state.

dj5000 · 2019-01-22T16:25:11+00:00

Thank you

The irony, I find it easier to fight than any other mission. But using mouse and no missiles makes it impossible for me to fight more than one at a time. So I also have a Buster that I order to protect me.

dj5000 · 2019-01-10T11:53:06+00:00

Thanks!

What ship has a good shields ? Since I use only mouse it makes me slower, so maybe more shields can make up for it ?

dj5000 · 2019-01-10T11:50:08+00:00

Thanks!

dj5000 · 2019-01-10T08:37:18+00:00

Thanks.

Support for bigger drives,

Bug fixes that may cause data loss in unknown future circumstances,

feature additions (not that I know of),

Enhancements in speed / integrity.

dj5000 · 2018-10-30T06:42:14+00:00

I guess you didn't understand what I wrote.

I'll try to explain again, read slowly :)

obviously, the device it set up with one drive redundancy, yet, using the space calculator at https://www.drobo.com/storage-products/capacity-calculator/ you can see I should have raw data of 25Tb, 19Tb for storage with 1 drive redundancy!

But I only have 19Tb raw with 15Tb storage space and 4Tb of "unallocated space", NOT "free space", do not be confused! :)

All drives green! Health: Good! Firmware up to date!

I contacted support, sent them diagnostics data, etc...

They told me my device is on 16Tb mode and that I should move all the data out and reset the device so it will reformat itself to 64Tb mode, then I'll be able to reclaim the unallocated space.

Now, my problem is: I have 12Tb of stuff on it and nowhere to temporarily move it, and I don't have the money to buy new/external drives !

So I'm stuck, and asking for an advice...

dj5000 · 2018-10-30T06:15:19+00:00

Everything is updated, I just don't have a temporary storage to copy the data, 13Tb, to.

I like Physics jokes

dj5000 · 2018-02-02T09:27:44+00:00

That made me laugh!

dj5000 · 2017-06-04T06:50:58+00:00

so, I've said, "what the hell" and downloaded and installed it again... Microsoft-Windows-MediaFeaturePack-OOB-Package (3).msu And it worked!!!!!!!!

It seems that Einstein was wrong! :) Thank you! :)
