    Intend to set this up as mirror storage
    Can someone tell me if this is gonna work?
    Can’t see any problem, but can’t be sure.

    Yes it will. Haven’t tried it myself on this specific box, but have tried on similar ones.

    Thanks for the reply.

    So went ahead and now getting this msg
    “The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error”

    Any ideas?

    Thanks, Ida

    Getting this message where?

    Put the old drives in, and everything OK?

    Tested the new drives on a different system to ensure they’re readable and in good shape?

    Have the manual for the box? Do they have anything on initializing? JBOD mode?
