  • I've installed the rollup and silverlight as well. I don't have any problems.
  • I experience something similar. Both when ripping CD's via iTunes and importing pictures via Google Picasa the process freeze for 5-10 seconds every now and again. Sometimes the application just hangs unresponsive, other times it gives a "write erro…
  • This is a user/community forum, not support. Alex has stated he is very busy working on the product and will not visit the forum very often. Have you tried asking for support directly via http://stablebit.com/contact As for other options I've tried …
  • The strangest thing. After having failed on every server backup two times a day for several days suddenly it started working again today. Without having done anything to the server the backup suddenly succeeded. Time will show if this is a continuin…
  • @todduptonNo I don't use gridjunction. Server backups have been working fine two times a day up to the reboot after installing build 5635. I've sent a message to Alex and I hope he can work this out. I've already had to reinstall WHS once because of…
  • @locus123My bad. You cannot create non shared, non pooled folders via the Dashboard. You'll need to remote desktop into the server and use standard windows explorer (file manager). I assumed you had knowledge of how to do this since you had managed …
  • I had similar problems with my Samsung DLNA player. I'd see the root folder of some drives. Duplicates and seemingly corrupt files. I turned off the built in media sharing option of WHS and installed Serviio Media Server instead. There is also a WHS…
  • I'd like to use the pool just for simplicity.  It doesn't make sense to dedicate a 1Tb drive for 1 or 2 VM's that take up maximum 20Gb combined.  We're not talking about a production VM environment here, this is casual home use. You don't have to o…
  • I've experienced this myself from time to time. Usually re-configuring the server backup (i.e. just making sure that only the System and C: drives are selected) will make it work again. I do not take server backup of the shares since they are all du…
  • I use DropBox to keep folders in sync between machines. I've had issues with offline folders (also without DP) so I stopped using it. My problem was that it often did not "detect" when the share was available (online) and kept showing only the offli…
  • I experience something similar. I'm in the process of digitizing my complete CD library. I'm using iTunes and a laptop and I'm ripping to a duplicated share in the pool. Every now and again iTunes will stop complaining that it cannot write to the sh…
  • The whole virtual pool drive is managed by DP. Moving the shares into ServerFolders like before might make more people prone to adding other folders the the pooldrive manually. On all physical drives you can add folders outside of the ServerFolders …
  • @stsmith5150 You might be correct. I have no folders with more than about 100 files in them. I tend to put all media in separate folders. But in total I have over 900 files in the share. I remember reading somewhere on the Boxee forum that it's reco…
  • I'm an upgrade fanatic and always run the latest (beta) firmware on my Boxee. Both with M3 and the new M4 I have NO problems with playing via SMB shares. The Boxee is connected via WiFi and all my video files are in the pool. I've set default SMB us…
  • Just managed to get it then Migration went fine btw. And it's now indexing all the shares.
  • If you really have duplication turned on for all the shares on that disk then removing the drive should only mean that DP needs to duplicate the files to other drives instead. The drive you are removing should in theory not need being read (except p…
  • If duplication is enabled StableBit will balance the share accross two or more drives. Since it's already on two drives it does not need to re-balance even if you add a new drive. But as you add more files to the share it might decide to start using…
  • On Nov. 22nd Alex posted this in Twitter: Haven't posted an update in a while. This could only mean one thing, DrivePool M4 is being worked on intensely It will be awesome. So I can only guess that he's so hard at work with M4 that he has decided …
  • I can see similar problems when downloading multiple large files from the internet. Say you for some reason want to allocate and start downloading 10 x 2 GB files. That usually does not go very well with DrivePool. Total hang and often a crash or ti…
  • I'm using the Boxee Box with DrivePool on WHS 2011. I have three shares all in the pool. The Boxee sees them just fine. As someone has already mentioned the Boxee has had buggy SMB support in the last firmware releases. I've entered my network usern…
  • I had the same problem. On some folder all was fine, but on some folder I got access denied after moving them to the pool. Performing a "reset permissions" as hopster suggests solved the problem for me. Go to DrivePool tab in WHS dashboard. In the "…
  • Ok. Error reports have been submitted.
  • Just want to add my vote on this bug. Some folders I can move into the pool just fine. But others give the Cannot move folder. Cannot retrieve WHS folders. First it moved all the data to the pool. Then all at the end (after all the data was moved) i…
  • You were right. Moved all the data off one of the disks. Then deleted all partitions and created a new basic one. Now DP sees it just fine. So dynamic disks is a no-go for DP. I was running RAID1 earlier, therefor the need for making them dynamic in…
  • Can't wait for this to be stable enough for production use. Tried drive bender rc1 that were out today. But it's  so complicated that I had huge problems setting it up. DrivePool looks much more straight forward, and the advanced features like strip…
