I'm Sorry, I may not have given enough information.

I have 2 Snap Server 2200s. These both have SnapOS version 3.4.790 with hardware versions 2.0.4 and BIOS versions 3.4.758. These are both functioning correctly using HDDs < 130GB. I am only looking to upgrade the OS in order to enable support for 250GB hard drives. I see that poogles_uk is running a similar 2200 and has successfully used a 250GB HDD in it.

I have downloaded the SnapOS v4.0.860 upgrade from Adaptec and updated the JVM and Sync software on these servers. They will not accept the SnapOS upgrade. As I thought I understood from reading these threads, I first need to upgrade the servers to SnapOS v4.0 and then upgrade to 4.0.860. If this is not necessary to enable support for 250GB HDDs in the 2200s please correct me.

If this is correct, and I need to first upgrade to SnapOS v4.0, could someone please give me the details on how to obtain this or another version of the OS which will allow access to large HDDs. I will happily donate to the cause if I can get these working.

Thank You
David
