What sort of content does the site superuserSuperUser want? What is a "useful" contribution?

I tried to contribute on Super User, by:

  1. Summarize the problem: I tried to contribute by 1. Answering "yes"  (with an explanation as to why i answer like that) to a yes/no question), 2. by commenting
  2. Commenting on an UNSOLVED issue, that has been idle and open for about 2 years now.

everyEvery "contribution" iI made was deleted, detailing, that what iI wrote was useless.

2)Provide details and any research: Do I need to wait for 100% resync? deleter was "ramhound" - Please do not submit commentary as an answer. It doesn’t appear this answer is an actual solution to the author’s problem – Ramhound 13 hours ago

It is about a RAID setup that will never stop resyncing, a widely spreadwidespread problem among windowsWindows setups. i haveI posted one actual reason for it, so this MIGHT BE an answer to some users having this problem. it was explicitly not for windows10Windows 10, but for a big number of other windowsWindows versions (so maybe related? the VSS subsystem is existantexists in windows10Windows 10, too!)

still no answer to this issue.

 

same problem here (windows10). resyncing was triggered out of thin air and it will never finish. I noticed a lot of disk activity in task manager for no apparent reason. The System so busy resyncing my game-framerate drops.

 

...trying to put one device "offline" using the disk manager and putting it online again but for 8TB RAID1 every step takes forever.
