    6 - 8tb drives just stop working?

    There is nothing on the drives currently. My work gave me an 8 bay Synology NAS unit that I was going to use the drives in. That NAS came with 8 2tb SSD's in it, but I wanted a lot more storage space.

    6 - 8tb drives just stop working?

    They were part of a RAID and the NAS unit died. Last time I checked them was about a year ago and I have never really ran into a problem of a drive sitting for an extended period of time. As for when I bought them, they were all new

    I have 8 8tb drives at home and currently only 2 of them will actively spin up. I can place all of them into a NAS unit and it will see that all are there, but tell me that only 2 work. If I take them out and put them into a drive cradle on my PC, I get the same issue that the system sees it...

    Bambu Labs Printers

    It's all been bed adhesion on that first layer. With the stick glue, I slowed the initial layer to 125mm/s and every other layer to 150mm/s. Travel speed between spots for the head was at 500 so I took it down to 250mm/s. Honestly slowing things down doesn't bother me and once it's past the...

    Does anyone have an issue with using non-bambu PETG filament and printing with it? I get the Inland PETG+ filament from Microcenter and I kept getting print failures up until I (finally) added Inland to the custom filament list and put the bed temp to 80° C and also used a crap load of stick...

    It really doesn't matter the material. For some reason on the left side of the plate, doesn't matter what side, it doesn't stick. Could it be a heating issue with the plate?

    Windows 10/11 Kernel Panic 41

    I changed the fast start option but I have no idea if that will really change anything. As for the troubleshooting, nothing came up when going through it. Could it be the SSD or the ram going bad? The SSD is a 1tb NVMe that I got from Microcenter a few months ago.

    What am I doing wrong when printing?

    From the help I got, mainly needed to be tuned. Since then, I have done some very minor leveling to the bed although I still get a little bit of spacing on the initial layer as you can see here when you zoom on and look at the left side compared to the middle. It's not affecting the print, but...

    What am I doing wrong when printing?

    I took a series of screen shots of all the settings. I will put them all up in the morning. The biggest one was changing the base to brim (I think) and having the initial layer at 0.28 and having it go slow, plate temp of 65° C and 220° C for the extruder.

    What am I doing wrong when printing?

    Since it's a glass bed that is nearly a 1/4" thick, could it be that the bed is not warm enough? I was reading that running it at 65°C for the bed helps with warping. I changed it so that it prints a larger initial layer and will see how that prints tomorrow
