StephenB,
Yes, I do accept this situation. Perhaps I should review my 'Frontview' logs weekly(?) I don't see the need. I don't seem to focus on my NAS as much at you do. Yes, I do depend on my NAS; now that I have it. It is not my primary focus. I do file storage ONLY. Nothing more. Different strokes!

Sadly, I do not yet have a stack of SPARE hard drives to 'pop' into my NAS yet. Yes, my trouble for sure.

Now, if I can get my DUO-V2 up and running; AND, get it to accept a backup from my DUO-V1, then I am better off than a perfect world with full spares for both my NAS. This will get PapaBear, mdgm, dbott67, and you off my case! :slap:

I have been searching the internet for the past 2 years for spare Seagate ST3500830SCE Barracuda DB35.3 series. When I do find them, they are all 'refurb' and very expensive. Ho-hum...... The hunt continues. ............ :)
