Yes to all
Both Drives the same make and model, and also cables are new and 80's,
This is probably correct that one drive is not synced ?
What will is say if the drive failed ? or dead ?
I think that second hard drive has failed if that is what the (F) means ?
I have another drive I'll pop in there to see how it goes
That drive was working in another desktop, but now it seems to also make an occasional clunking noise which is typical when the armature is going bad.
I'm not positive, however I'll take the drive out and run some tests, and then also pop in another drive.
I was wondering what may happen if I sync a larger second drive, I know that it will only be used as the capacity of the smaller drive, but what if I then take out the smaller drive and add another identical drive to the larger drive ? will the capacity increase or does it always resort back to the initial small drive capacity ? even if the small drive is no longer present ?
