I've had my DNS-323 for over a year now. I can't say i've had many problems with it, but I'm not really happy with it either. First of all, it vibrates like crazy even sometimes when its just sitting idle.
anyways, i don't access it much via the admin page but i checked on it yesterday and it says my RAID1 is "degraded". This means one of my drives is bad, correct? If that is what the DNS-323 is indicating, i don't be believe that to be true. Both of the HDD activity lights on the front blink normally when reading/writing. Also, the drives are fairly new, only about a year old or so. I know that makes no difference, but i just don't believe one of the drives is failed, i think the DNS-323 is reporting the RAID is "degraded" falsely. My main question here is i don't want to lose my drive's data, hence the reason i purchased this device in the first place. How can i rebuild the RAID without it wiping my drives? Both drives are WD's, one is 500GB and the other is 750GB if that makes any difference. Lastly, i tried searching the forums over at DLink but i'm unable to post for help there because my account is not yet been approved for posting by a moderator. I've been waiting for several days.
