Re: Uh oh

Dear JP

Posting boilerplate messages to random threads doesn't inspire me with confidence in Synology's approach to this problem.

Right now, I've got a shiny DS1815+ that's humming along very nicely, but I'd really like to know if this thing has one of affected processors so I can plan accordingly. I understand that RAID Is Not Backup, so losing access to my storage won't hurt me, but it will make my life less convenient.

This is an inherent fault in manufacture of a component, identified by the manufacturer of that component. I'd really like to know what Synology (and other manufacturers who are reading this discussion - CK) are going to do to rectify it.

If your attitude is "we'll wait for your kit to die, then we'll replace it" then your box is going back to where I bought it from - and I will make very sure that anyone who asks me for advice on buying a NAS knows that.

Toodle Pip,

CK
