  1. well the pcie ports on this thing are non-standard. even just plugging in an extension to the port causes it not to power on at all. My guess is that they have one pin shorted to ground so that you cannot use third party devices. I am trying to find the pinout for the addon modules, but no luck yet. Thanks, Chris
  2. Ok, I figured out that I have 3 unused usb ports inside the unit. I can add an internal usb for booting. How does the VMware boot work? Is it somehow using a virtual usb drive? Thanks, Chris
  3. I picked up a Juniper SA2500 for $20 and wanted to do something cool with it. Specs: Celeron 440 (upgraded to Q6600, because I already had it) 1gb DDR2 (upgraded to 4gb) 80gb internal drive (upgraded to 320gb, boot drive for testing) I can mount 3 x 3.5" hard drives in the unit and an SSD for caching. I plan to migrate my jun loader usb to a CF card to utilize the built in port. I used Jun 1.02b with DS3617xs DSM 6.1-15047 You need to add both network ports. Using just one, the network would time out during initial setup. I was unable to get the 1.04b bootloader to work, most likely due to cpu requirements. I was hoping to be able to add a 10gbe nic, but so far that is a non starter. Thanks, Chris
