Just wanted to report a successful install. Compared to my old TS209 the
throughput increased vastly. I have a gigabit network and with the TS209 I
got about 140 Mbit/s (RAID1 with two disks). Now I get about 700 Mbit/s
(RAID6 with four disks). Tests were performed with iperf against a very
capable Dell laptop with SSD, Win 7 and Cygwin. Just for kicks I'm going to
try a RAID0 with four disks to see if I can push that number even higher.

BTW Martin, on http://cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/qnap/ts-41x/uboot/ it's
not enough to set 'ipaddr'. You also have to set 'eth1addr'. They have to
be both set, I don't know why. I ended up using 'fatload' instead (inspired
by http://cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/install/), which is easier
and faster IMO.
