I bought this NAS 4000 server from eBay and it has served me well for over three years, so far. I do have the following info:
Software: 2.3.417 (US)
Hardware: 2.0.1
Bios: 2.0.282
I have the following questions:
1. What is the key difference between the 4000 and 4100 (aside from the size 2U vs 1U)?
2. Are most of the 4100 website pages (in the Adaptec site) applies for the 4000? The 4000 seems to have disappeared as soon as they came out with 4100.
3. What do I need to do to get the version 3 and then version 4?
4. Do I need SnapOS Version 4 since all I have is a simple user network at home?
5. How much time do I need to allocate to upgrade the SnapOS?
6. Aside from the backup, what other requirements do I need to upgrade?
7. I currently have 84G in Raid5 configuration. That mean I have 4x120 Gig - how can I verify that without opening up the machine?
8. Lately I also see from the logs:

Network transmission errors : More than 18 percent re-transmissions reported by TCP/IP.

Should I worry about it?
Apologies for a lot of question. This is the first time in years I had some time to review my configuration. Thank you in advance for your help.
