ST2000DL003 Compatibility?
Being a RNP user that is running out of space, I'm wanting to purchase new drives. I'm interested in using the Seagate ST2000DL003 2TB drives. These drives are not currently listed on the compatib...
Thanks both for the advice.
I will connect up through the switch and connect the backup drive to a PC through USB. Does the rsync advice still apply? Or is it OK to backup using simple drag/drop across the network and then rsync the two locations - and it hopefully needs to do nothing..
I am using W7 and Firefox - have done a config backup and looked inside - a tmp and etc folder. I do know some unix (also use ssh on the NAS) so will have a look through them. :)
I have thought for a while about putting the switch onto the network 'before' the router and connecting almost everything through that but have never gotten around to it. I think I will now..:)
EDIT: did a quick backup to remote PC but couldn't see how the rsync process could be modified to it - let alone a USB drive connected to it. Not even sure a backup can go to a USB attached to a remote PC?
Drag/drop me thinks..
Thanks again.
