That's 100Mbps for sure

I think you can boot off MicroSD, but I've never tried it as I have a horrible old USB stick to use.
-
No change in transfer speed after update for me.
-
Just make a new USB stick, they're only used to boot the machine, so no danger.
The MAC/serial thing is to trick MyDS into working and not actually necessary to use the thing.
-
I skipped a bunch of that doing mine.
Put new USB stick in currently running NAS, update, reboot, done.
-
Nope.
-
Just boot the new image and install.
-
I hear my discs spin up every so often, so I assume it works.

1. Never tried one, but pictures say yes. As for worth it, that depends on how many drives you want.
2. Dunno, I prefer RAID-5
3. Red's are most definitely a better option, but desktop drives will do the job, that's what I have in mine.
-
Just get the new boot image and go for it. Worry about the drives when they arrive.
-
Pretty sure that it's vulnerable to Heartbleed, so I would update.

1. There are four 3.5" bays and one spot for an optical or 2.5" drive
2. You use USB as a boot drive
3. Depends, direct play your only limited by the throughput of your network, transcoding it will do 1 x 1080p stream, two would be pushing it.

My Celeron shows as i3 as well, I assume that it's just a text string somewhere.
-
Yes to AHCI and although I didn't perform any updates, it was running the latest out of the box.
-
It's just the stock 2GB, no idea what brand but I'm going to assume HP.
Can't remember what the drives are either if I'm honest. It's a hodgepodge of desktop drives; one is a Hitachi and one is a Samsung, one might be a Seagate but I'm not sure on that, the fourth could be anything.
Edit: Or I could just screenshot the model numbers...

Use the setting in your BIOS?

I'm using RAID-5 and seeing good write speeds over SMB:

Had you installed 5.1 then done an update? I remember that it was expected behaviour for the first update to cause that and need a reboot.
-
Er, I think so... I don't sit and listen to it to be honest
-
Well the downside (IMO) is that it's meant to be rack mounted, so is pretty long and wide.

Sick Beard?
-
My Gen8 is bare metal, but my drives are AHCI and DSM takes care of the RAID-5.

Results from my Celeron G8:
Can I stop updates through command line?
