if its so obvious, prove it. the hard drives were driven into read/write death. i fully accept the blame for catching onto it too slowly, but the constant churning of scans that pegged the hard drives and cpu at 100% for hours on end did the hard drives in. the first one i had had for a good while, but died soon after SBS started exhibiting the issues.
the second one (which had been used enough previously to know it was good but did not have lot of wear on it) died within weeks of being put in to replace the first one, while the sbs scan problems continued. there is no question in my mind that sbs pegging these drives wore them out. of course, heat is the ultimate culprit, but that heat would never had existed if the churning wasn't going on that sbs was causing, for so long at a time. the bug i reported was confirmed by other users calling in to logitech support to complain of the exact same issues. so unless you can show otherwise, i suggest you stow it. as for your techs, good for them, i'm so happy for them. of course, AV was not the issue, it was windows defender, and at that time it did not handle exclusions properly, (in fact, i don't think you could add any back then, forgive my memory which i am sure is not the equal of your techs) although it isn't certain that it was the cause, as sbs had some new scanner code back then. it hadn't always done this, it started, did it for a while, and then gradually seemed to stop doing it. no reasonable explanation for what changed was ever provided by logitech. as for installing mysql, i let sbs handle that, since only sbs used it. why would i need to do anything about that? why fixate on that? why should i do anything other than accept the SBS default installation? -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbrec & ipeng (parents' home) - sbs 7.5.3b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - p4(ht) 3.2ghz, 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 - 45k+ mp3 ::VOTE FOR 'BUG 15604' (http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15604)!!!:: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84697 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
