Default Re: Snap1000 Mirror? Say it isn't so.

I no longer have 1x00 units around. It is that easy for the early models ones. The older models only have 1 controller chip, just add a cable and see what you have. I have 1 2200 that has light daily use, only purpose to backup Quicken.

As far as MP3, if your using a low quality compression it works ok. The SnapOS units (all models) are limited to about 8mbps transfer rates during read.

For transfer rates read the FAQ's, The 1000 models were the slowest of the models.

My main use is a 4500 and will stay that way. Transfer rates in raid 5 greater than I can shoot at it on a bi directional GigE network. Boot process reports >3000mbps.
