Never (yet) lost a drive in my NAS, but have twice lost Samsung S2504C drives even though they were still under warranty and hadn't even done a year's service. The first time I lost 250GB of FLACs (it was backed up) and the second time I lost 6 months worth of email and family photos (not backed up, my own fault thinking it's new and therefore won't fail). In any event, two lessons I've learned: - always backup if you attach any value to data - don't buy Samsung drives - there's a good reason they're so damned cheap. -- egd Internet forums: conclusive proof depth of gene pool is indeed variable, monkeys can be taught to cut code, and world peace is utterly unrealistic...
