Hi there, thanks for your reply. As an update, this box is now working.
It's actually a V1 box, as the fw was 4.1.6 and the box is a metallic black colour...so it's a
Infrant Sparc CPU.
I tried the WD20EZRX drive in an old PC I had, but it wasn't recognised. Hmm. I then got a laptop SATA hdd and that wasn't recognised in the PC either... so I delicately inserted it into the (powered off) Nas ...and the NAS powered up ok and Raidar showed the drive working in the NAS box. I then tried the WD20EZRX in the Nas box with OPT1 enabled (jumper on pins 5-6), 1.5Gb/sec transfer speed enabled. The NAS is now working fine, formatted the WD20EZRX and all is well.
Thought this might be of use to anyone else with a similar problem.
