Default Re: SNAP 4000 Errors and Limits

If you would to look at the results, you would reconize that you are still having issues with the large drives. Other wise you would not be coming back with all the problems. All other with the 400gig hd (and 320+gig) have had problems in raid5. You must remember STABILITY IS THE KEY, with out it you can not trust the unit. This means starting and stopping, this is where a lot of problems show up. If it has to go through a 24+ hr check every time it boots, someting is wrong. The snapos also is working on a 24bit file system which clamps the capacity. 750 gig drives have worked in some units, as long as the share is under the 24 bit limit, ~ 1T. I have also done research that there are a lot of other NAS (early ones) that also have this limit. But most of those the MFG supplied upgraded firmware.

Your welcome here but with new problems that have not been addressed.
