OK, the data copied off OK and I did a factory reset (when I restarted with the drive in it asked me which RAID I wanted - I went for the normal, expandable one). Restored the settings OK. My write speeds back to the NAS are slow - 11-12MB/s - over a gig network. My read speeds doing the backup (obviously on the old drive) were around 30MB/s. I didn't check the write speeds after switching to the gig switch.
This is going to take a looooong time.
I have just downloaded the logs and the partition.log file looks like this:
I could be totally wrong but what does the 'Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes' bit mean? Is that not where you would now see 4k?
Also, In My Computer on W7, the drive of the NAS (mapped to NAS 'c') says Filesystem - NTFS. That can't be right can it?
