OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!
Update: It is now unofficially possible using NTGR images to update legacy hardware to os6.X See Post #3, for directions to install 6.2.1 on x86 Ultra and Pro Models. (ARM NOT SUPPORTED by this OS) ...
mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.
Good Lord you're fast! I wasn't even finished proofreading/editing my last post before you sent a reply. . . :)
Anyway, my answers are:
YES! That was the first tool that I used, which is typically the case when I'm diagnosing Western Digital Hard Drives. The primary reason I even sought a "Second Opinion" was because "LifeGuard Diagnostics" reported that the drive had NO ERRORS of any kind. I concur, 24638 ATA errors is huge! Which is why I think the data may be erroneous.
Well yeah, I figured that much. . . :roll: I was hoping to avoid that primarily for two reasons:
a.) It takes forever (24+ hours) to rebuild the RAID array from scratch, and. . .
b.) I was afraid that doing so might wipe out all the Fan Speed and Temperature Graphing tweaks that I had done. Not being the Linux expert as many of you are, just having to do those two things over again is a couple of hours of work for me :oops:
