Hello Friends,

Apprecaite if you can help to reslove below issue. Connected an USB HDD to Raspberry Pi but it was running super slow. have verified that the USB storage device can work fine with the PC so I was thinking there might be an issue with the system or my wrong operation.

Please see below details. thanks for your help in advance.

When I try to access the disk via the Raspberry Pi it is SUPER SLOW. I have tried this with a fresh install a few times, here is my latest log (with my comments in YELLOW):

Last login: Thu Apr 26 11:22:53 2018 from 192.168.1.187 pi@plexpi:~ $ sudo lsblk -o UUID,NAME,FSTYPE,SIZE,MOUNTPOINT,LABEL,MODEL UUID NAME FSTYPE SIZE MOUNTPOINT LABEL MODEL sda 931.5G Generic ├─sda1 128M

THIS WAS SUPER FAST AND WORKING AS INTENDED

pi@plexpi:~ $ sudo blkid /dev/mmcblk0p1: LABEL="boot" UUID="A365-6756" TYPE="vfat" PARTUUID="97dae6a0-01" /dev/mmcblk0p2: LABEL="rootfs" UUID="90a83158-560d-48ee-9de9-40c51d93c287" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="97dae6a0-02" /dev/sda2: LABEL="Media" UUID="8026891D268914F6" TYPE="ntfs" PARTLABEL="Basic data partition" PARTUUID="a282e94d-e317-4eb6-a283-1a683c3d5e78" /dev/mmcblk0: PTUUID="97dae6a0" PTTYPE="dos" /dev/sda1: PARTLABEL="Microsoft reserved partition" PARTUUID="5357fd1f-7216-4150-866f-fdc925fa0a37"

SUDO BLKID EVENTUALLY FINISHED, BUT TOOK 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE RESULT CAME BACK, IF I TRY IT WITHOUT THE USB IT RESPONDS IMMEDIATELY

pi@plexpi:~ $ ls /mnt/ mediahdd pi@plexpi:~ $ sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/mediahdd

THIS IS STILL RUNNING AND HAS NOT YET FINISHED AFTER 30+ MINUTES

I am not sure what the problem is, I have been using this Raspberry Pi as a Plex media server, with a network disk and it has been running fine.

I have tried a fresh install twice, and am still having issues.

The disk works fine if I try it on another computer.

RasPlex is for running Plex home theater (the client) on a raspberry pi, not for running the server. This repository in particular is for the RasPlex installer. I think your best option is to ask for help in either the raspberry pi or plex forums. Closing issue as out of scope. Sorry.
