Hey all you smart owners of Xpen. I have this one issue. if I have all 4 drives plugged in the machine it will not boot. but if i unplug them all but one and when it gets the the boot menu I plugg the others back in then it boots fine and reads all the drives fine.

have you checked the boot order and boot override settings in the bios?

I've generally found it best to disable all boot devices except the usb

as a test, if your bios has a boot override option, manually choose usb (with all 4 drives plugged in) and see if it works.

Thank you for this idea. I will give it a try when I get to my friends place again on Friday and let you know if this works. Much appreciated for the help bro.
