Default Re: Snap 705N/4100 lives and thrives!

Thanks, Actually I found a loose Ram chip (although I have had it happen on other servers)

RAM Size is 64Mb (old drives were 4x30Gb) now 4x160Gb so could be an issue.

I think my reliable servers have 128MB (but can't easily check as hidden in a remote place !!! - unless I can check through debug)

I installed a clean copy of 3.4.780 with no extras (the server had been PW'd and could not get access to it, so was the only way !!!) (Adapted just gave me access to 3.4.807 !!!)

If anyone wants it, it's here:



You say not very fast - I can get combined throughputs (ie multiple transferes)very close to 10MB/sec - I find the tranfer rate is limited by Windows not the Server, which usually puts a limit of around either 3.5Mb or 5.8Mb - no idea why (does not seem to be related to PC's CPU speed).

The 1000 / 1100 / 2200 etc series do appear to limit at app 1.6MB/sec.

Anyone know what type of RAM chips these take as Will upgrade to 128MB or more if desireable ??

LBA limit yes I know this, but going from 4x120 to 4x160 gave a worthwhile extra >40GB of storage (Raid 5)

(I did try 4x250 before I learned of the limit .... costly mistake !!!)
