XPEH Posted July 29, 2013 Share #2 Posted July 29, 2013 Big waste of powerful hardware and electricity. The whole point of NAS is to have it on the cheap hardware with large storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aigor Posted July 29, 2013 Share #3 Posted July 29, 2013 maybe you have to check if there is modules about you raid controller, if not, you havo to compile by hand and add to boot image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
