    @RojoLoco How about you keep the Devil Duck USB and I'll just send you a real Devil Duck to keep him company? You can ping me with your mailing address ([email protected])

    Did you steal the font from the Miami Dolphins? 😛 That was might first impression.

    I compared the colors, they aren't the same.

    But my brain went there by association 🙂 If I look at them side by side you see the difference.

    Seems like a lot of time and energy.

    Reinstalling the OS from generic media is my personal preference for any new computer. Get rid of the crap the OEMs bake in.

    The only time this didn't work well for me was Vista pre SP1. The OEMs seem to be able to get the machines to run OK, but damn, once you blew their install away and installed from generic media and then installed the OEM's drivers - it was never as good.

    But outside of Vista pre SP1 - I've never had an issue doing this.

    Also, do you even know anything about the subject you are asking questions about? It sounds like you do not. I would start by doing basic research yourself in order to ask a better question.

    Like here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unregistered_trademark

    I know the basics. I figured people here would know more, because they know everything.

    And my assumption was correct!

    Ah yes, I believe that those, like WD, are still RAID 5 only.

    STILL!? Just shoot me now.

    Last that I knew. They promised us some demos back at SpiceWorld 2014. We've been waiting for two years for them to arrive. They've stopped talking to us, we've asked a few times but radio silence.

    They've switched from being community friendly to having their bulldog in Germany pushing RAID 5 as the best thing since sliced bread in public, so it looks like their "sell RE drives and put them in RAID 5 to hide the cost" strategy has replaced their "get good feedback" strategy.
