Default Re: Snap 2200 With 4 Drives

They all use the same SnapOS. No nothing about the Guardian OS. These Guardian machines did not start showing up till a couple of months ago. I think it checks the hardware closer than the snap, before installing.

As for motherboards what you found is not new. The 2200 MB is the same as a 4000 setup. On some models you have to set a bios flag, this is where the problems accour. The 1x00 will reboot in the middle, once you set the unit to 2 drive. Here it gets locked in a error loop that can not be cleared. Then you have what is know as a doorstop. So far know one has been able to clear this error loop. And many have tried. I have one here right now that a user brought me. I have tried everythink and nothing works.
