They really should be passing, if I'm honest. Your lambda is fractionally low as well, which is odd.

I just buy mine from Amazon, cheap there as anywhere else. It's the WD Red drives you want, btw. They are the market leader for NAS drives right now, I wouldn't touch anything else.

How old are they?

Oh please tell me you don't like those?! Admittedly those ones are about as good as I've ever seen them, but still they are proper late '90s F&F chav central tat.

Did I ever tell everyone how awesome Mouthwash is, and that he's like a hero to me?

Yeah, so what actually happened? What did they do originally, and what did they do to fix it?

Are these those horrible nigh-on day-glo illuminescent dials I've seen? All awful blues and purples and that?

It might be for the best Ricky, it's a hell of a risk to take otherwise. I always play safe with data and different software! Seriously though, some of you folks really should look into UnRAID as a way of making your life easier. Basically, it's this: 1. Take one old PC, with lots of space for drives and lots of SATA connectors. Everything else is secondary (CPU, RAM etc) 2. Get two drives, one of them as big as the biggest drive you'll ever want to fit. That one is the parity drive, and does not hold data. 3. Install drives, then install UnRAID software via USB and boot. 4. Set it all up (takes about an hour unless you want to preclear the drives). 5. Transfer stuff onto it. That's it. You can add as many drives as you want as long as they're not bigger than the parity drive. If one of the drives fails, you simply replace it with a blank one and the parity drive rebuilds it for you. It's such a simple solution, as long as you're prepared to spend an hour or so learning the basics of linux, or even just follow the guides that are out there word for word like I did. It's not as redundant as a proper RAID solution, but it does a bloody good job of pretending it is for much less. If anybody wants to know more, I'll let you know about my setup and what I did (and the challenges I overcame) as a complete NAS/linux noob.

Actually, I'd do two things: 1. Take the money. Make sure it's in hand, or in the bank if a cheque. 2. I'd then go an see the guy, and scream and rant in his face about what a dirty, filthy, cheating little man he is. To call his son a liar takes the biscuit, and I'd just basically go mental at him. Getting it all off my chest might not get me any more cash, but it would make me feel a whole lot better and a whole lot more satisfied

You know what? I'd take it at this point. As much as it's not right (and to be clear, it's not), you're going to have a hard time trying to get anything else out of him and I'm not sure the time/ballache factor is worth it. Chalk it off to experience, and just tell as many people as you can what happened. Hopefully karma and word of mouth will do the rest.

It really annoys me when people abuse the Spotted On eBay section like this. No offence to you flamez, you're only doing what you can to sell your car, but really there's a dedicated For Sale section for a reason that you easily qualify for. Might make people actually read it than just skip past not realising it's your car for sale.

What software were you using? What was the old NAS?

For a week, yeah I'd go with that. For anything longer (as in months and years) then no, go somewhere that will give you the protection you need as a tenant. What if he comes home early and decides that he needs the place? You're pretty much out on your ears then and there.

"Dear sir, Get stuffed. Love, The Government. "

No chance they'll be a better driver's car than this. The stock Cayman runs the 458 close, the GT3 trumps the Speciale, this is going to be THE car to own. Shame they'll be a halo car and never drop to sensible levels

That'll be fine then matey

What is the app? But yeah, that could all be quite reasonable. Sat nav by any chance?

Yeah, 76dB is about as loud as me typing on this keyboard That's a mistake.

Tell them to get stuffed, unless you can pay it directly into their standard account in mainland UK. If they want the money, they'll go for it. I don't know what sum of money we're talking about here, but I wouldn't chance what you're doing without seeing some proper paperwork first. Assuming you have a mortgage (do you?), the mortgage co will also likely want to know about this as well and should be able to offer advice.

My mate Geoff reckons his stuff is pucker though, top gear innit. But yeah, you've spelt out the exact point I was trying to subtly make, in that there's all kinds of crap in the stuff so no-one has any idea how much they've taken. Putting numbers on it is great for convictions, but doesn't help the public at all.

Oh god no not Louis Spence, utter bellend.

Lols at Grundy I don't like David Walliams either. Not funny, not entertaining, just irritating. Just like Graham Norton.

It's payback for never driving her You know the score, pedal dance and report back, chop chop TAGL Probably moisture in a coilpack, at a guess.

dan saying about the big gay wing being offensive well gay can mean a few things saying something @*!# because it had a homosexual on it just points to one thing See, I didn't read it as the problem being the guy was homosexual, I read it as the problem was he's a camp homosexual. Maybe that's just how I read it? It's a good point though, and what I like about the LGBT community as a whole is how they reclaimed the insult 'queer', and nowadays (to my ears) it's not really insulting at all and is very rarely used because of that. It's hard to use a word as an insult if the other party uses it all the time as well, and that's something they should be very proud of achieving.
