" long tests every 3 days, and the pool is scrubbed every 14th and 29th of the month. "
As an outside observer (I don't own a NAS), isn't this a lot of extra wear and tear on those drives? Not that it's in any way related to your problems.
I've never had to send something defective or not working to them, but their customer service was outstanding when I've dealt with them in the past. Responsive and friendly.
I agree with cageymaru. I bought one of those electric dusters and it's so much better than the hassle of duster cans, Shop-Vacs, air compressors or other methods. It will pay for itself in no time with how expensive those cans are.
I bought one of those drives and thought there was something wrong with it, until I started reading reviews. Seagate's SMR is crap.

"Oh, Chris Dod, head of the MPAA and former congressman just sent us a letter and wants us to fight for the businesses he represents". "We also got one from this millionaire, Cary Shermen, who represents the RIAA and wants poor people to stop "stealing" from the incredibly wealthy business he...
The last time I did that I walked in and there were about 15 people waiting and two of the three customer service people decided they were going to lunch. I waited in line about 30 more minutes to return my equipment, and by that time the office had just about filled up with more customers...
That's utter bullshit. It was caused by the drive for higher corporate profits and quicker extraction of oil. BP was completely at fault. The EPA doesn't operate those drilling platforms.
A lot of racist heads exploded with anger after the election of the first black president. But at least our economy isn't headed into the shitter, with us loosing 750K jobs a month, like it was when your hero, Bush, was running things from The White House. The fact that's his presidency has...
So the more machines they can get it on, they can turn those machines into bittorrent servers, for updates for more customers. I assume that's what the "BT" in the directory name is for. Seems pretty shady to me.
I sure as hell would hope so, considering it's a free update to the most popular operating system in the world. One fifth of the US population (The ~67 Million Windows 10 Installations so far) is an impressive number, if you leave out the rest of the world, and those facts.
Splitting the flow seems pointless to me, since it's all one system and combined at the pump anyway. You should have enough cooling there to cool just about anything, doing it normally, without having to worry about any temps.
If you don't have any luck here, watch ebay for those processors. I just got a (what I consider) rather good deal on a x5670 myself, $90 shipped. Nice overclocker :)
