Readysecure1985 - I suggest you re-read that technical bulletin. It was published before RAIDiator 4.2.12 was released that supported 4K drives. The specified WD20EARS version listed is the old obsolete 3 disc 512K sector drive. It is no longer available. Following the release of the advance format 4K drives by WD (and others) RAIDiator was updated to support those drives with version 4.2.12 on the x86 models and 4.1.7 on the sparc based models.
Member is running 4.2.16 which not only support 4K sector Advanced Format drives, but also drives over 2T which use GPT partitioning rather than MBR.
Shockalot - I agree with readysecure1985 in that you should open a technical support case online. Once you have the case number, append it to the subject line in your first post. While waiting for them, I would also make sure you have a current and complete backup. Always a good idea any time.
