[QUOTE="Ruidoso Bill, post: 292303, member: 753"] I went with Raid 5, still close to 6 TB which isn't too bad. I did see the firmware update when I was setting it up and it is now 1.59 if I recall. Moved it into my network closet so now it's out of the way. Do you leave yours powered up or turn it on when needed? I am thinking since mechanical wear is what ruins hard drive by only powering it on for use then shut it down would extend life, thoughts? [/QUOTE]
