Besides the obvious, that the Highpoint cards aren't supported, I think Tony explained our position quit well.
That it is a lot of work and you want to make sure of the best compatibility ?
Yes sure... You re kind of paid for that no ? WHre not rally talking abut a freeware...
Thank you
You are right we are not talking about freeware, it is $30 software. $30 software that i now fully trust will all my critical data because i have been able to run it on an approved RAID card for 2 years without failure or data loss - set it up, through it in a closet on a UPS, and you are 100% done.
You seem to be looking to *not* spend anymore money, understandable. But the NASLIte team and the contents of these forums make it crystal clear what NASLite has always been and what it is capable of doing - search the forums, read the docs, and you will find you answer: X is supported, if Y ≠ X, Y is not supported.
Requests are one thing, but to "call out" the creators of this exceptionally stable piece of software because you cannot save $200 and use your existing piece of hardware is impudent.
Go ahead and spend $129 or whatever for a copy of WIndows, just to "save money". You will buy the OS, right?
Thank you for the math lesson... (Glad to see some PhD level people part of Server Elements team...)
Read my posts first: you can see I have been asking very politely... several times... without any kind of answer... Then confronted with some sacarsm, or at least some rather low consideration I reacted quite angrily
Btw it"s not a problem of money, rather a problem of trying to use something small and efficient: I indeed purchased a copy of Vista for my server. And I encourage all the people dissatisfied by the lack of support for HW by your product to go shop around as well... (Vista is clearly overkill, there are other cheaper solutions...)
It was quite simple to answer politely "No we dont have the resources, we dont plan to support this HW in the short term". This would have been polite, considerate and would have more than satisfied me than the B***sh*t I was served...
Or you could also have asked me to pay for a custom version, which I would probably have done...
