I'm trying to get this working properly. It functions, but I'm getting copy-modify-write messages.
Here's my sd.conf and sections of console log. Can anyone suggest what's wrong? Note that mdb reports the physical block size as 512 w/ the others as 4096. But prtvtoc reports 4096 block size The other three drives (sd1,sd2,sd3) are the system SATA drives (Seagate ST2000DM001).
