I noticed that on my new NL2 system with dual 3Ware 7506 cards, during boot I get the following message twice:

"unable to handle 64 bit address space for (blank).

Does this mean that my RAID cards are only using 32 bit? I still get pretty good throughput.

Also, is there any way to use the 3Ware 3DM utility on NL2? I don't know how else to tell if my arrays are healthy without looking at the status lights on the server.

I got this too unable to handle 64 bit address space for (blank) with the old NASlite it would just stop there. But the new one it goes on and boots. Runs good.

Yes. The current linux kernel used does not support 64bit address space. In some cases like yours it still works, but this also depends on the MB and card BIOS as well as the hardware.

No. There is no way to run any apps or utilities in the NL server.
