The 4000 will run 250gig drives without much trouble. But it must have OS v3.4.805 or Greater, and 128meg of ram. The 4000 model is know to have weak power supplies. And if I recall you need HW version 3 or greater, these models use CS. There are fixes for both of these problems.

I think Phoenix32 may have one for sell, fully tested.

The SnapOS runs on BSD NOT Linux, so you can not read the drives with a pc.

LBA48bit addressing is required for any HD >137gig.

Check out the FAQ's Sticky at the top of the threads, it should answer most of your questions. Link below
Well, now I can say yes for sure. Yes, I have two (2) SNAP 4000's with 1TB in them I will be selling on eBay as soon as I get a chance to take all the photos and do up an add.

They are SNAP 4000, with SNAP OS 4.0.860, and JVM (S2S installed if they want it). They both have 4 x 250 GB Seagte drives I bought as new from Ztronics on eBay. So, SNAP 4000 with 1TB and OS 4.0.860. What else needs to be said?

Why selling? Because I built them for a close friend of mine who has recently gone belly up money wise and can't afford to get them from me now. As simple as that.

Will they be cheap? Uh no. They weren't cheap for me to set up, but I can tell you it will be a lot less than any of the other 1TB units you see on eBay because I am just trying to recover my money, not make a profit.

If you're interested, send me an e-mail or PM. But don't wait too long or they will be on eBay and I can't stop it then (sometime this week I hope). And no, I do not plan on making this a common thing here on the forum. I just thought I would throw it up because I know some people here have been looking for soemthing just like this and figured I could maybe save us both some efforts.
