I really wish there were a desktop gadget window showing the NAS status, but this is better than launching my browser, logging into my NAS and checking status.
Any upgrade plans - like emailing events? I've had a disk die, and not noticed for weeks since I rarely look where my NAS is. Maybe a threshold to force shutdown if a temp is reached (and email a specific address)?
Can it make coffee? 8)
