Windows showing only 2MB drive space on all drives after upgrade to IOCrest 4 port SATA card?

[rakesh]

I recently upgraded my FreeNAS box with an IOCrest 4 port SATA card (SI-PEX40064). I plugged in my drives into this and filled it up with 4 drives. But now, on my Windows machines, when I go to check the drives that I mapped, they say that I used 1 MB have 1MB of space left on them, so 2MB space total. This is true for all of my drives (320GB, 2TB, 3TB, 500GB). Is there a configuration I have to do to adapt to the new SATA card? A screenshot is attached for reference.

What are your system spec's? See the forum rules in red at the top of the page.

Which version of FreeNAS are you using? If it's 9.3, consider rolling back to an earlier version. See this thread for a similar issue: https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/mapped-shares-suddenly-only-2mb-big.28052/#post-182391

I'd hardly call that an upgrade.

What are the system's specs (before and after)?

What are the system's specs (before and after)?

System specs are as follows:
Freenas 9.3 Stable x64 (Freenas 9.2.1.5 was running before and then upgraded to 9.3)
8GB RAM
320GB, 500GB, 2TB, and 3TB HDs
AMD Athlon

If I wanted to rollback, how would I do so?

I presume you might have multiple "versions" of 9.3. If so, you could select an older one at boot time. See section 2.5.6 of the manual. You can download a .PDF version of it, using the link in my signature.

I tried that, but I only have one option in my GRUB boot menu

Which version, do you have? Please provide the detailed info, for example: 9.3-STABLE-201502271818

Perhaps there's a newer version that will work for you.

I have FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201503270027

That information is telling me that none of your hardware meets the hardware guides: http://www.freenas.org/whats-new/20...design-part-i-purpose-and-best-practices.html

It may well be that your hardware choices killed your data.

What do you mean by my hardware choices? It could very well be that the new update is somewhat buggy for CIFS shares as stated in this bug report:

That's pcbsd....

This is freenas.

There are also certain HARDWARE requirements for Freenas to run properly...

Well ok, What are the hardware requirements that I have not met? Is it that the SATA card is not compatible plain and simple? Also, isn't PCBSD the bug tracker for FreeNAS?

 

[pirateghost]

Since you never gave any details about your hardware, how are we supposed to know?

Sorry, my specs are:

• Freenas 9.3 Stable x64 (Freenas 9.2.1.5 was running before and then upgraded to 9.3)
• 8GB RAM
• 320GB, 500GB, 2TB, and 3TB HDs
• AMD Athlon II X2 250

I just repurposed an old Dell Inspiron 570:http://www.cnet.com/products/dell-inspiron-570/specs/

That definitely doesn't meet the recommended hardware....

it's be great it you were a bit more detailed. OK, then I guess the most viable option is to rollback to 9.2.1.5. Do you have any idea on how to rollback? I was thinking to just reimage the flash drive I loaded FreeNAS on and import the volumes since I backed up my config file.

You know we have documentation, correct? Hardware requirements are there and installing an older version of freenas has been covered a million times in these forums.

Install freenas to USB thumb drive, upload your saved config db.

I am having the exact same issue after upgrading to FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201506292332
I was running an 8.x version.

I am running an MSI E350IA-E45 Motherboard
This MB has a built in AMD e-350 processor
i just upgraded to 8 GB of ram before installing the new version of FreeNas Crucial Ballistix sport (4GBx2) BLS2KIT4G3D1609DS1S00/BLS2CP4G3D1609DS1S00
I have 3 drives that i am using a 1.5 TB drive and two smaller they all show the same 1 of 2 MB used.
