So you can put more memory in a V2 2000 but it can't use it!?
The extra RAM appears to end up in Heap Memory, what is that used for?
Isn't it "debug raid" that gives the raid configuration, not "debug memory"?
Tried "config raid cache size 64" but it doesn't seem to take the
command, gives me a '-2' error

Transfered ~700MB file to and from Snap2000 and got numbers like
4.7MB/sec from Snap, 2.7MB/sec to Snap.
My V2 2000 is SnapOS 3.4.805 with 256MByte RAM,
dual 500GB Seagate 7200.10 in Raid1

Did the same with my 1100 (3.4.805, 250GB WD2500JB) and got numbers like:
4.6MB/sec from Snap, 3.8MB/sec to Snap.

My 1000 gave ~1.5MB/sec in both directions.

(For reference, my Ximeta Mini over ethernet gave 8.6MB/sec read, 8.3MB/sec write for the same.)

Are the transfer rates any better on the 2200s?
