The data loss my my fault on that that one. The UPS I was using was not compatible with the readynas and I knew it, so the unit lost power when the battery ran out. I have only used compatible Ps's since then and have made it through and handful of power outages.

Wow! Two NV+. Can I assume that both are 4-drive units? Yes, I've read many threads about 'power outage' issues. And why each of my NAS has its' own UPS. This has been tested 3 times since moving to NW Georgia. We get many Electrical storms thanks to Mother Nature! The NAS shutdown logic has worked perfectly every time the UPS battery went to 50% so far. My plan may not be perfect, but I am still hanging in there. Sorry to hear of the data loss. Bummer. Yes, understand the 'speed issues.' Nothing is ever fast enough is it? Understand the Drobo5N. Drobo is very high in the ReadyNAS community also! Never mind................... :) NAS ON Bro!
