devman 13 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 armbianmonitor -u: http://ix.io/2Lae Did an apt update/upgrade & reboot today, and the system came back up but none of the drives did. Imaged a new SD card with stock armbian, and still no luck. Measured the voltage of the PS (at the plug, not the molex connector) at 12.3v Anything else I can check/try?

aprayoga 35 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 @devman Could you measure the voltage at molex power connector? Link to post Share on other sites
devman 13 Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 with all the drives removed, I get: 5v reads 5.05v 12v reads 12.10v with 2 drives on one connector, the remaining connector reads: 5v reads 5.05v 12v fluctuates between 10.3 & 11.9v Link to post Share on other sites
devman 13 Posted Monday at 03:04 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 03:04 AM Since the original (Helios4) is EOL and the new Helios64 is backordered waiting for a second production run, I know the odds are low, but.. do you have any (bare board or full kit) available for replacement/purchase/whatever? After it being rock solid for so long, I kinda redesigned my network around centralized storage and it's a bit of a pain atm. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
gprovost 113 Posted Monday at 08:12 AM Share Posted Monday at 08:12 AM @devman Based on your measure (the 12V fluctuating when HDD are connected), it's a dying PSU. So you just need to replace it. In which countries are you located ? We can provide you link for a replacement PSU that you can order on Amazon. Link to post Share on other sites

devman 13 Posted Wednesday at 01:34 AM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 01:34 AM @gprovostHit up the local computer mall for a replacement power supply. Closest they had was 12v 10A to barrel, and then a barrel to 4-pin adapter. Anyways, everything checked out correctly, and no more errors. Thanks! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
