Hi everybody
I am having the same problems with these drives my duo is only 4 weeks old and i decided to take the plunge upto higher capacity drives
luckily the new drives i recieved are the correct ones listed in the compatability list but after 2 days of use one of my drives was listed as almost dead.
I am currently using my duo in flex raid configuration and using Raidar 4.3.0 at this moment in time i only have 1 disk in use.
my duo was set up with an older version of raidar and firmware 4.1.6 / which is currently in use
will updating to raidiator 4.1.7-T42 allow me use my other disk??
