Disk Failure Detected...

It's load related. Time machine generates load, but my last failure happned with Time Machine disabled. I was copying a large amount of data (music and video files) to the NAS when it happened. Just a drag-and-drop copy; nothing fancy. I just pinged support again. I took a break over the holidays because I had enough stress but I'm taking it up in earnest again. We're going on 8 pages of problems here, so they need to do something, but I'm not holding my breath because if Netgear can't fix it, they're liable due to the HCL posting. My guess is that if they can't find a fix, they'll procrastinate until someone takes action that's more serious than complaining on a forum or hassling the support techs :) Honestly, I may end up selling the unit and just use the drives as stand alone externals. I can stream video and music from my Mac on a couple, and use a couple as Time machine targets. Not optimal, but if I can't use the unit, maybe someone can.

Or maybe disks will become cheap again some day :)
