Connection lost Redux

#1

Using HD HomeRun Prime on FiOS 1 "gig" in Western NY as source. Seems to affect only sports network channels: occasionally (average 10- 20 mins) Connection Lost screen appears (Android TV client) or window closes or freezes on web browser, reselect from guide brings it up fine but it's annoying. Server is on Windows 10 Pro. Here is a snip of log that seems relevant, time wise:

Is this something I can fix?
Thx

Seems like something funky with your G: drive. Is this a local disk?

#3

It is "local" but it is a Drive Pool drive, which is a virtual disk driver representing a pool of physical drives. I use it in this application as a sort of RAID 1. I will switch to a regular hard drive and see if it makes a diff.

Must be some kind of timing issue or something not handled as expected in the DrivePool driver. Replacing with a 'vanilla' HD resolved all issues. TY.
