NASLite Network Attached Storage

Same problem here! As a matter of fact, all links in the Serverelements documentation section recurse to the home page. I would really need to see the v2 HCL before ordering.

BTW, never failed to download a PDF from any other site on this PC.

Any other way to access the documentation?

The Hardware Reference Guide list the Adaptec 2410SA PCI card as supported. Is the Dell/Adaptec 2610SA supported? This card was made for DELL but is very similar to the Adaptec 2410SA. The main difference is that this card has 6 ports while the Adaptec 2410SA has only 4 ports.

Thanks

Tom,

I'm using a 2610SA I purchased off Ebay with no problem. I'm even using it in a 32bit slot vs. 64bit slot, and it still cooks along.

Thanks for the reply. I ran into another question

Are you using desktop drives or enterprise drives. I do not know if it is a problemn or not but Western digital says there can be a problem with some drives during error recovery.

I believe that my array consisting of 8x300Gb ATA drives may have suffered what WD explains.

The array went into degraded mode and I had 2 options. Either replace the drive or reconnect the drive and do a rebuilt.

Being slightly nervous with almost 2TB of video files I replaced the drive.

Of course the supposedly defective drive reformated fine and it is not at all dead.

I have one of these RE WD drives, a 500GB SATAII, in a standalone mode and it works quite well.

This thread should be a sticky, no?
