    Promise Comments: Quieting Down the Promise SmartStor NS4300N and NS4300N Review!

    Nas Any ideas when we can expect some updates? DLNA plugin is woefully behind. I cannot for the life of me reindex. Is there a way to force this? I dont want to install the mediatomb plugin, but this is getting silly. BTW any ideas if it supports the new 2 TB drives?

    responses to support when it comest to support i suggest logging in and checking your status. I find they like to close cases without even responding to them.. I have several cases that magically keep getting closed with no response. Or they respond with half a sentence and close the case...

    My experience so far, Diggity, This happened to me, i suspect that for me it was i chose to power the drives down after 5 hours. They would not wake up when a call was made to them. I had to do a hard reboot. When you do that it takes a tremendous amount of time to bring the file system...

    Update I have been able to keep the 4 1.5 TB drives in place but have to run them as two raid arrays so they are running raid 0. This has been rebooted and seems to run ok, the only issue i have is that i really wanted one array to keep the files together.

    SR 5 is still no joy for me :( My 4 1.5 TB drives in RAID 0 still create file system errors after upgrading to SR5. Creating a new volume worked great. Formatting went fine. When it came back up, like a dummy i started copying files.. luckily it was copying and not moving.. I decided to do a...

    They are telling me that it wont handle past 4TB so when you put drive 2 in you should be ok... When i put drive 3 in, im doomed. It runs fine until a reboot is needed which happens, then the file system is corrupted and nothing works to repair it. Thats why Im hoping that SR5 will...
