I have updated to the latest firmware by the web interface and ssh.
1 is 3 TB, 3 are 4TB all at different client sites
As soon as I get more than 1 machine backing up the drive slows down to a crawl and is totally unusable
Even after the backups complete , the drive stops responding/responds EXTREMELY slow and is completely unusable.
I take the drive(s) offsite where no machines are trying to backup and I can access it, but still no wheres near fast as they should be.
Maximum number of machines backing up to 1 drive is 3.
Disabled Power save
Disabled All media servers
Disabled Cloud services (must stay disabled, no external access allowed)
Set time server to time.nist.gov
I have used many of the old MyBook Live drives in identical circumstances without any issues.
I appear to be experiencing all the problems that the new firmware is supposed to correct. Read above, I have updated firmware, automatically, manually and via ssh. Same results.
Based on the searches I’ve done MANY people are having issues with these drives.
Need a fix ASAP or I will be forced to switch to another manufacturer.
Factory reset also has no effect.
