Hi Sage,
Thanks for your suggestions. I can't backup my data from the unit because it doesn't retain any of the backup settings after entering 'apply'. Is there another way to accomplish a backup of my data?

Well, I think that fan doesn't really exist. Here's my Pro 6 Screenshot:
In addition to the data volume, the disks have an OS partition that is quite small (4 GB in the pro-6). Sometimes it will fill, and the system can act really strangely when that happens.
