Email addy req'd to install v5.3.5?
Can anyone please tell me WHY I MUST give the RAIDiator Installer an Email Address to install this F/W? I can not get by this initial screen. Is there some 'pass-thru' but inactive, address I can us...

I understand your desire, and agree that firmware installation should accommodate it.

But you are making a mistake. Getting immediate notification on disk failure is extremely important. There are many posts here from folks who have thousands of reallocated sectors, and never realized it because they hadn't configured the alerts. Usually we lose data.
