Okay, since it sounds like the drives do not have any needed data on them, do this,

Step 1. Go to debug and do;

co de format 10000 /reinit
co de format 10008 /reinit
co de format 10010 /reinit
co de format 10018 /reinit

This will put the partition starting positions in the proper place for OS v3 and ensure they are all in the same place.

Step 2. Perform a FULL FACTORY DEFAULT (4 LED flash) hard reset using the procedure found in the WIKI here;

http://wiki.procooling.com/index.php/Snap_Server_Resets

Now I am talking about a HARD RESET not a reset you do from the web interface. Just follow the procedure for a 4 LED flash (pressing the button 4 times). Do Step 3 right after doing the Hard Reset.

Step 3. Flash the OS again using SNAP Assist. Do not use a different OS version (at least at this point). Do not use an old version of SNAP Assist (like used with OS v2), so make sure it is a version at least as new as the OS you are using. And note, I underlined using SNAP assist, do not do this from the web interface.

Step 4. (optional) Just in case that particular part of the OS was corrupt (I doubt it, but), repeat Step 1.


I bet this cures your problem. If not, there may be a more serious issue going on. If that is the case, I have to ask, are you sure it was working properly before the OS update?

Okay, go do that, then come back and let me know what a genious I am (or idiot if it didn't work).
I have done full reset and reformatted a few times to RAID5 and individuals.... just not using the co command, but using the interface for the reformats....

I don't understand how FTP would work poerfectly and not the windows share mount.... It did work fine before (i was benchmarking before all the changes to see if i could gain improvements with new OS, RAM, Drives, etc...).... i'll give it a shot tonight....

I get the errno=6 in the log... and the kind of symptoms smells of communication/security to me (since FTP is flawless and fast)... I will also try the disable "SMB for NT" option i found elsewhere.....

Thanks all for your input.... i will try it all!
