Hi gang I won't post the model number of the appliance in question here as mail archive will surely give away my advice to the whole world via Google but you can have it offlist if you care.
I picked up in the bay, actually by mistake/on impulse, an esata/usb sata-II 4 disk soho raid box only to realize after the fact that it supported a total capacity of 2tb rather than 2 tb per disk. Must have been why it was so cheap, € 77.01 as opposed to € 769 new where still available. Obviously it is an older box. I ended up calling the manufacturer to find out if perhaps there was a firmware update to increase capacity handling and he asked about my OS. Turns out that when used with win7-64 via esata it will support 2 tb per disk after all so I am a happy camper. Will be a while until I can afford four 2 tb disks but I can always start out with 2 as it supports raid 0, 1, 0+1, 5 and 5+spare =) -- Cheers Ecke ----------------------------------------- Cameras don’t shoot people.
