Brand Manager - Broadcast Radio Group: Broadcast Radio Posts: 562, Visits: 74K	Will Trueman (03/10/2011) Paul is right, for some reason when something is deleted from Myriad it ends up in the recycle bin on the server. The server is running Windows 2008 R2 (64 Bit) with 2Gb of RAM, 2 x 1Tb HDD's which are mirrored using ViceVersa. Will, i am assuming that ViceVersa is a bit of software that runs under a scheduled task, mirroring one drive to another, is it possible that this is the culprit? It's looking at the MASTER disk, seeing that some files have been deleted from it, and it is now deleting them from the SLAVE drive, thus they are appearing in the recycle bin??? Why did you not go for a true RAID1 Mirror? Regards David Boulton Brand Manager Broadcast Radio Ltd Edited 13 Years Ago by David Boulton 192

It's not a massive issue, it's more of a minor annoyance for me. (it just means Paul has to keep an eye on the recycle bin and empty it every now and then) When we move buildings later this year, I am moving the backup to a Netgear NAS, which has RAID. It's all good and well having a mirrored drive, but if the server dies, it's very little use (and that has happened - power cut blew the PSU) 185

You can adjust this down to use less space, or even turn it off altogether I think. ------------ Peter Jarrett, Technical Director Broadcast Radio Ltd.
