    Smokin' Deal - Sans Digital 24 bay enclosure WITH ARC1882!!! ($813)

    Hi All - I _think_ it might be the ARC 1882 - as the one in the close-up picture has the FAN that the 1882 has. Also - on the website - it gives you the option for the EliteStor 24 to have only 1 of 2 ARC cards. Either way - I'll let you know when mine arrives.... :)

    ARC-1880 Raid Failure - looking for advice?

    Hi All - just wanted to give an update here. I finally received a response from the ARECA folks. They noted that drives 2,3,8 were all an issue - and since disk 3 failed initially - then disk 2 built itself back from a degraded raid - I had 2 disks that were 'capable' of bringing it back...

    ARC-1880 Raid Failure - looking for advice?

    Actually - I really only lost 1 drive. The other drive was due to the card overheating. It is actually back now. I removed the drives while it was powered off, and then powered it all on, and the inserted all the drives. I read online that this was a way to get the controller to recognize...

    ARC-1880 Raid Failure - looking for advice?

    Hello mwroobel, Actually - I have never moved the drives around. I RESEATED them in their same slot tho. (That is why you see 'inserted drive' a few times) I do remember tho - that just before this happened - I was having some issues with disks #2 and #3. So - I seem to recall that...

    ARC-1880 Raid Failure - looking for advice?

    Hi All, I have a WHS running the SAS version of the ARC-1880, been running well for 3+ years. Last week, I started having some issues with it, and 2 drives failed (RAID 5 - 7 drive array). I read that 2 drives can fail due to the raid card overheating - so I shut it off overnight...

    External (raid) enclosures - best manufacturers?

    I have had an ARECA 1880 (external enclosure), and been very happy with it. Be careful about the physical drives that you put into any enclosure. Most of the vendors have supported disc model numbers. So - what did you end up buying? And are you happy with the purchase?
