Ditto (except the part of joining the 4x00 club, I have a 1000 and a 4000), but I too am looking the direction of Guardian units. No, not for the Guardian OS (that is just a plus), but rather for a little higher performance unit. I have GB LAN, so GB connection would be nice, but the real reason is the damn software RAID. I have never been a big fan of software RAID but that is what we gots. Software RAID can be quite a drain (especially in large transfers) on CPU/RAM if you are in RAID 5 (or another parity type RAID). We might also get past this 1.2 TB limit is "seems" we have with SNAP.
