Be careful, do it wrong and poof, no more 4000 Main Board. And don't use too much power (too much heat, bad for drives big time).

Yes, that clicking on all the drives is an indication of not enough power (for WD drives), not to be confused with the click of death.

Yes, there was a how to guide, but I never posted it public. It is NOT for those not qualified to do the MOD, thus never got posted, just talked about.

If you are planning on a 4 x 320 GB RAID 5 array, the OS has a 1TB limit per volume, thus 4 x 320 = "issues", contrary to what other "experts" might tell you.
