Long restart time - is this normal?

Post by gana2k1@gmail.com »

What do you all find as the restart time for your NAS?
I have a TS-451, 4x 4TB WD Reds, Raid 5 and restart takes upwards of 5 minutes (closer to 6 minutes).
Is this normal for QNAP NASs? Or should I into something in my settings that makes restart that long?

I recently timed it to around 5 minutes 38 seconds - time I hit restart to the time I get the login page.

Thanks

Normal amount of time to shutdown and boot.

Use RAID and external backups. RAID will protect you from disk failure, keep your system running, and data accessible while the disk is replaced, and the RAID rebuilt. Backups will allow you to recover data that is lost or corrupted, or from system failure. One does not replace the other.
