My WD Sharespace won't stop resyncing

rongibson · October 9, 2011, 12:29am

I backed up my PC onto the Sharespace and it copied over fine (apparently). I can access the Sharespace and the files do appear there. Then the unit started to resync, which has been running for days. I’ve seen it go up to 5% completed, then check it the next day and it says 1% completed. The log states it keep abnormally shutting down, then attempting resyn again.

I have it set up for RAID 5.

Please help. Here is the system log for the last few hours (the post removed some html so I hope everything that is needed remains):

rongibson, maybe you should try contacting WD’s Technical Support about this. You can do so either by phone or email.

I am seeing exactly the same problem.

One thing I have noticed is that when it “wedges” (just before reboot), one of the drive lights is flashing (they’re all lit, but one is flashing).

This is truly annoying because mine is crashing about every 10 minutes so I can’t back anything up.

I did update to the newest firmware recently.
