Also what type of drives are you using?

Has this one reached a conclusion? Should we close it out?

@scottalanmiller pfffft, why bother considering that? It's not like stuff ever breaks.
 
There may have been sarcasm in there somewhere.

@scottalanmiller Seagate surprised me with what a POS their NAS offering is. Not at all happy with it.

Drive makers don't make the best storage appliances. Just doesn't go together. Their interest is in selling drives. WD does a little better, but it is a weak offering too. It's RAID 5 only so that you have to buy super expensive RE drives.
