I'll be studying this further, but I would put my money on "1" because I remember hearing a strange noise coming from inside the box a few weeks ago. At the time I wondered if it was one of the HDDs. I wasn't sure how to check if they both were working. Then I forgot about it until now. That machine is important to me, but not as important as the other machine I am about to set up. In fact, the RAID1 on the machine in question was done partly as practice for setting up this other machine. Thanks *very* much, Mr. B-o-B for your help with this. You have done a lot for me and I really appreciate it. Mike
