Thanks again to all who offered me help.

On a related note, what type of hard drive should I get for my new
enclosure situation?

Should I get a "Red" NAS specific drive or go with perhaps cheaper
"Green" drives that offer energy savings with lower RPM (the "Red"
drives do too)?

Here's a sample "Red" drive on sale at Tiger.com:

Here's a sample "Green" drive:

Any thoughts on this?  I realize a slower drive may also backup slower
but for the main purpose of these drives, serving music files, a fast HD
is probably not needed.

Thanks.  Hope you're having a decent holiday season.

Jim
