I finally got around to putting together my RockPro64 and the NAS case.
I have the PIne64 power supply (12V/5A) as well as 2 8TB Seagate Ironwolf NAS drives.
When I booted from Armbian, NextcloudPI, and Ayufan's OMV image on an EMMC card, all is fine.
Once I added the 2 Drives, nothing...
Reimaged the EMMC and tried with 1 Drive, nothing...
Reimaged the EMMC again and tried with a WD 4TB Red NAS drive, nothing...
Reimaged again and tried with just the EMMC card and all is fine.
Guessing the Hard Drives I have are drawing too much power for the stock Pine64 power supply. Is it possible to put in a higher amp power supply? Maybe 6 or 7 amps?
Thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks!

I got my case and I use two old harddisks to test it, it seems ok.
I use a 12V/5A power supply.
I bought two WD 4TB Red NAS drive and want to build a raid system. it's on the way now.

Thanks, Good to know. I'll try again with some other hard drives and see what I come up with.

the disks arrived yesterday and I installed successfully.
the ayufan's image can't recoginized the disks, so I replaced the kernel with
mrfixit2001's.
I use openmediavault to create a raid 1, it use about 5-6 hours to created it.
to set fan work, I installed ats. it seems worked good.
I trans a file with ssh, the speed is ahout 60-70MB/s, I don't kown is there any method to make it more fast.

Over SMB? you may wish to try some tweaks, these at the very least:
Code:
min receivefile size = 16384
write cache size = 524288
getwd cache = yes

I use ssh(scp) from my Macmini host directly, and there is no swich/router.
board is Rockpro64/2G.

Hi! Quick question: Did you just build mrfixit2001's kernel from source from here?

Hi @
chengjianwen
I am thinking about switching from a Synology 713+ NAS to a Pine64 RockPro4G NAS
My 713+ Synology uses about 40Watt's constant incl. 2 WD RED 3TB HDD's.
Can you tell me about your power consumption with the 2 HDD's ?
Thx!
