So my NAS has been running fine for a while then all of a sudden, in the past few months, things just went downhill. For example, when an HD movie (located on the NAS) is played on any comp on the LAN (gigabit LAN), it'll play fine for a while, then during it, it would stutter to the point of not-watchable. Why? Because one or two HDDs would have maxed activity. While its doing this 'thing', whatever it is (since nothing should be happening, no backup is running, no duplication is happening, just the movie streaming which that nowhere near maxes out the HDDs bandwidth) i cant watch movies, I cant access the shares, I cant remote desktop, I cant run the WHS connection utility, nothing. If i have a remote desktop session open and this happens, I can see the one or two HDDs maxing out (I'm not sure if the movie is located on them or not but my guess is yes). Anyone have this issue? Anyone know what it could be? I have 14TB capacity with 9TB used along with drive balancer used a few times so right now, each drive has the same %. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
