   Hello Matt,

    MB> protecting data integrity.  Just remember it is not a backup.  The   
      
   Never said it was a backup.   
      
   All I'm using it for is to serve my external drives that hold music and    
   various files to my home LAN, that's all.  I know plenty about RAID, et    
   cetera.  If I was going to deal with RAID, I'd set up a SAN, not a NAS device.    
   :)   
      
   The only thing that is backed up is my BBS machine and it uses rdiff-backup to    
   a local external USB device and backed up to an offsite storage area via FTP.    
   I have hot, warm, and cold backups for the BBS.  The rest I'm not worried    
   about.   
      
   I was just finding an excuse to use the RPi B.  Now that Slackware/ARM 14.2    
   has been released, I'll get me a RPi 3 and set it up for use in my ham radio    
   shack.   
      
   Why?  Just because I can. :)   
      
   Later,
