i have 2 of these in my network, and they never failed once, they are runing in 24/7 with full of torrent download and seeding, ftp and so on... the support is not so good, but they trying to correnct the errors with firmwares. if you used in raid 1 than how could it go wrong?
@blackrul3z - I was surprised too, the Icy Box started to reformat the hard disks after failing a couple of times, the disks where too far gone by the time I'd noticed what was happening! Very annoying.
This device though was awesome when it worked! And has a very nice design and construction.
@MyRandomReviews Check out R-Studio if you need to recover files. My shit Readynas DUO on attempting to update the drives decide to wipe them all and am currently using R-Studio to recover files from a formatted drive. Has worked really well on one of them.
@yasheenthiran - The whole thing was broken, I can't remember what reason they gave but I got a refund so it must have been the device.

Yes you can get a replacement power adapter because that socket is a standard one. My old Lacie drive used one of those.

Great review! Are you putting up a game server or do you just need a lot of storage space for other things?

@SgtMako I've got a game server from UKGame at the moment. I rarely use it however, just waiting for it to die of tbh.
I mostly wanted this storage for extra safe storage of my videos, but that went rather wrong.
Stupid fail product!
Thanks!
