First time linux user. (Flame suit on)

Hi guys, how are you all?

I've done some searching (I'm sure there will be a thread I've missed) but can't figure out how I should set up the config file in snapraid (Ubuntu Server 12.04 no gui)

The 4 drives I want to use for snap raid are the same size and type, I was wondering how I identify the disks in the config?

Hi there and welcome to the forums :thumbup:

In the snapraid config file you identify the drives by their Ubuntu "mount points". So, if you've mounted one of your drives as "/media/drive1" then you'd put the following in the config file:

Code: Select all

disk d1/media/drive1/


Hope this helps,

Ian.

Cool, I haven't mounted the drives yet, I suppose that might help lol.

Thanks a lot Ian :thumbup:
