Default Re: Snap Server 2200 FOR SALE

Holy crap David, you really are getting old and forgetful...

Note: For those who do not know, David and I know each other as pen pals and are friends, we just tease one another. Do not assume our teasing one another is a start of flaming.

David,

This was not about his selling the unit. This was about the problem he reported.

I also know he said it was a 2200, but if you remember right, the 2000 and 4000 use almost the same MB and the 2200 is based on the same technology. Now back to my hints.

He did not say what brand drives he was using, but also remember, the 4000 had serious issues with the Seagate (and a few others) larger drives when using CS due to the ATA interface they use. His problem could easily be related.

Next was power. The 2000 and 2200 use a power supply rated at 1/2 the rating of the 4000 power supply. Since the 4000 power supplies can have problems with 4 of those larger drives, then it is simple that the 2000 and 2200 can also have power problems with 2 drives. Simple logic.

The last hint was just to point you this direction from memory.

Just some ideas to work wth....
