    Any pico-itx boards with PCIE 4x or 8x?

    Thanks. That makes it more clear. I'm also looking at a 3.5" sbc that lists "1x PCIe x4 slot (w/ 4x PCIe x1 speed)". is that also what you are referring to as a 4x slot with only one lane? Thanks, Greg.

    Any pico-itx boards with PCIE 4x or 8x?

    Thanks. It looks like I wouldn't even need an adapter if my card was pcie 4x, correct? Edit: I see it. I was looking at the 4x - 16x adapter. Would that adapter work with any M.2 slot 3?

    Any pico-itx boards with PCIE 4x or 8x?

    I'm looking for a pico-itx board to base a small server on. My only hangup is finding a board that will support a PCIe raid card with 8 ports. Perhaps I'm not reading the specs right, but I've yet to see one with anything more than 1x pcie. Can someone please point me to one. Thanks, Greg.

    Areca1222 migrate from Raid 5 to 6

    Thanks. I already had the drive installed, showing as FREE. To add it to the array do I use the "Expand RAID set" function? I see the Modify Volume Set but it doesn't give me a raid6 option, likely because it doesn't see the free drive as what I want to use. Thanks, Greg.

    Areca1222 migrate from Raid 5 to 6

    That sounds exactly like what I want to do. Unfortunately the manual is unclear, so I don't know the exacts of how to do it.

    Areca1222 migrate from Raid 5 to 6

    I have an Areca 1222 controller and a 4-drive raid 5 array. I'd like to add parity/redundancy drives making it a raid 6 array but am not clear in how to do this. I see the option to expand raidset, but the manual is unclear, it leads me to believe that the result would be a raid 5 array of 5...

    Areca 1222 locks up system during file transfers

    I have a computer with an areca 1222 with a raid 5 array. I can stream the files that are on the array across my network and watch them on my media player, but minutes in to a large file copy, the system locks up. It does not matter if I try and copy across the network, to another drive in the...

    Areca 1222 makes system hang intermittently

    The array is raid 5, so when I disconnect one, the entire array is disabled. This can be seen in that the array does not show up during post, usually the array can be seen on the screen where it says to hit tab or f6 to go into the raid setup.

    Areca 1222 makes system hang intermittently

    I have a computer I built and use as a server. I am in the middle of upgrading the MB/CPU /OS. It is an I7 processor in an Asus Rampage 3 formula mainboard. I have Win 7 64 installed but when the raid card is installed and drives attached the system hangs intermittently for several seconds at a...

    Deleted file recovery

    I tried everything suggested and more with no positive results. The array had been rebuilt a while back due to a failed drive, and as I understand, that makes it even harder to recover files. Add to that the fact the array was made of 4 2-tera drives, I think the size was a factor, as I got some...

    Deleted file recovery

    Yes it's windows, and I don't see any 'previous version' tab. I assume you mean after opening the folder's 'properties'. Thanks.

    Deleted file recovery

    I have just made a bonehead mistake and need to fix it. I deleted a bunch of videos from a folder on a Raid 5 array. I've tried a few recovery programs and they don't seem to work, mainly saying they can't access the drive. Does anyone have an idea of how to recover them? Any help will be...
