NAS setup: weird noise and reboot with 2 3.5" HDs
02-11-2022, 06:31 PM
Hello,
I'm building a NAS setup with this:
But when I'm booting, there is a loud noise coming from the HDs, and the board is rebooting often. On first boot I could see the 2 disks but I didn't try to mount (the time to install), and now it's rebooting each time. It looks like it's underpowered, but the 12V/5A power supply should be enough.
I've tried with 1 drive only, it seems to boot normally, without noise.
What can I do? Any check I can do? Any reason that can make the HDD under powered? I can post a video if it can help the diagnostic.
Thanks
I'm building a NAS setup with this:
- NAS case
- RockPro 64 with 4 Gb RAM
- Axagon PCES-SA2N PCIe => 2 internal SATA III adapter (I didn't took the one from pine store following wiki advice)
- 2 Western Digital 6TB "WD Blue" 3.5" hard drives, that I plan to mirror with RAID 1
- SATA and power cables from NAS case
- tall profile heatsink
- 80 mm fan
- a 12V/5A power (from pine store)
- WIFI/BT module
- trying Armbian bullseye, I'm mainly willing to run OpenMedia Vault, and if possible some graphical software (like Kodi)
