Default Re: Crash!!!!

Been out of town for a week and more activity than in the last 2-3 months.

With the 2 x 500gig HD's I would pretty much bet on the PS. Writing takes more energy than reads. And I'm pretty sure the largest HD's that ever came factory were 2 x 250gigs. I didn't see where he said how mfg the drives.

With the 2200 it only takes one HD to act up knock it out. But it normally logs the problem drive.

UPS units can do strange things when batteries go bad. They may give you a warning or not. The reason I have opted for the higher end units. At least they do load test on a routine basis and report if there is a problem.
