For what its worth
reByte needs a cutomer relations department
I wrote a whole story just now and erased it, about a rebyte fiasco and decided that they were so much trouble to deal with then that I decided I would just mention;
The rebyte, and the computer you need to make a nearly good file server costs as much as the Buffalo Tech devices see links below;
Bufallo300 gig
or the
Buffalo 1 Terrabyte
Thanks
Sincerely / Ed
I have nothing to do with Bufallo and I own a Snap server 2000 and a 4100, sold my rebyte on ebay and gave the computer I built for it to a neighbourhood budding geek boy.

Unfortunately, I couldn't use his Snap1000 image which had the 4.x software already installed.
I was able to get all my data finally by using a ghost clone which for some reason let the Snap have access to all the files. Something was still flaky as the data was devilishly hard to get off the server. Kept losing the copy during download if it was over 25mb.
New 200GB drives with 3.4.805 are working fine now in Mirror mode.
thanks for the input..... Think I'm still going to reByte. Don't trust my Snap any longer.
