Greetings! I've had my first FreeNAS box up and running for a few weeks now. It's running on a Dell T30 with 2 WD Red drives mirrored. Everything seems to be working as expected. I ran all the drive tests and such before I started loading data.
I noticed, however, that every 5 seconds there is some kind of drive activity going on. The Dell T30 has a Drive Status Indicator light on the front panel that lights up each time. I can also hear it, which is how I noticed it to begin with. So...
Drive activity every 5 seconds
