I used to use FreeNAS... Then I just bought a 500GB drive for my Linux machine and I use that and Samba for network storage since that machine is on all the time anyway. Funny thing about FeeNAS... Every single hard drive that I have used for the OS over the last few years works fine for the FeeNAS OS, but as soon as I try to wipe the drive to reuse it I get a report that there are errors on the drive. Now it might be possible that the drives actually did go bad, but 4 different times? Sounds a little suspicious to me. Just my $0.02, but I won't recommend FreeNAS to anyone. -- ========== Todd Young -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: "Tony Yarusso" <tonyyarusso at gmail.com> > I'd second what Sunny and Isaac said.
