and it was still only 118%

Payouts have been delayed since yesterday - had a server failure at home.
No data lost or anything like that, I have backups of all that is important run every day.
Just a bummer that my main server 4TB RAID1 disks both failed! Yes the 2 RAID1 disks failed
Damn I hate Seagate now
(They were the Hybrid SSD/HDD ones - bought them back in November - so not old at all)

Anyway, I've spent most of yesterday trying to recover data from them, finally given up and will build a new server at home now (today)
Once that's up and running I'll do the outstanding payouts.
Again, NOTHING LOST, this is NOT a standard BTC "OMG I lost all the data and all your BTC"
I didn't lose anything that matters, my backups have all that does matter

Edit: and of course it doesn't stop the pool running at all

You Are Welcome!

- had a server failure at home.

That really sucks!  

I know it is probably a silly question but, is there anything we can do to help?  
I'm going to send you some BTC to the address in your sig, unless you want it somewhere else?

wow sorry to hear this....so in warranty but you have spares to get back up? Those aren't cheap.

Ouch, that sucks! Not only for your server but I just bought a seagate hybrid 1TH drive around that time also... They had good reviews   I'll join Zachm and throw a donation your way also.

Thanks for any donations to my sig address
I'll use them to help get an extra spare HDD so if either disk goes down, I can immediately switch in the spare without a reboot, rather than wait to get a replacement - sata on the replacement server will have one spare slot so I can put it there.

The problem, though, is partially my own fault.
I always say to everyone regarding RAID1 that the two disks should either be separate batches or even different models.
I used two exactly the same I bought at the same time on amazon (they were only US$174 each when I got them)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FQH7MQ2/
Yeah don't buy them - don't use that link as a suggestion

I have actually had similar to this happen once before - but the HDD failed a day or so apart so recovery was no effort, I swapped in one replacement with a reboot, then when the 2nd one failed, I swapped in a 2nd replacement again with a reboot.

Anyway, I've found a quick solution to restoring almost everything once I've finished installing the server - that being that the 3TB drives I had from back in November, that I upgraded to these ones, are sitting here on my desk untouched.
I can just restore the backup on top of that and all the data that's not part of the backup is there as at back in November.

The majority of the lost data was daily backups from other servers, so it's not critical, the next backup will get it back to where it was, just they'll take a while to rsync all the changes since November.

P.S. thanks for the donation that I just noticed

I have one of seagates 2TB SSHD's which has run fine for over a year already (touch wood) !

[xZork]

NP! It wasn't much but glad to help.

Thanks for the pool all the hard work that goes into maintaining, sent.

Friends don't let friends use Seagate. 

I have a pair of 4TB HGST Deskstar NAS drives, trucking along for over a year, no problems.  They're Backblaze's favourite drives, too.  Everything else I have is WD, and they've been perfect, I really can't remember the last drive failure I had, might have been a 2TB Seagate Barracuda LP, back when those were new and shiny.  I even run a pair of WD Blue 500GB as the system drives in my NAS, and they're not supposed to be run 24/7 and they're going fine.

Are stats out of sorts?  It keeps showing one of my workers at difficult 1698 when I specifically have it set to 2048.

S5s returning after failover have the same problem. I had to restart them.

Yeah I prefer WD for everything and all my client servers I'm pretty sure over the years I've only put WD in them.
When I saw the Hybrids about the same price I thought they sounded good: SSD buffer in front of the HDD
Well, I guess as usual, if it sounds too good it isn't as good as you think it is

I've also found that testdisk (the linux program) can read most of one of them - so I got a few 'unimportant' files back that I wanted also
On that one, the corruptions are in the journal and the superblocks - and any access to those locks up for a few seconds and then gives an error, so they are certainly royally screwed

P.S. thanks everyone for the donations! It's added up to almost 0.6BTC!
