Yes, we need it, you can ban me from this forum, but to be honest, all this getting really annoying. I am doing some computer job for other people.  After I buy DNS-321 and use it for about week, I star recommend it to this people, and now I am think I am wrong. Unit constantly hang or not responding after running couple of days or running very slow. Not all of this people is computer GURU and if they are, I am very upset because I recommend  this unit like back-up and now I must check did this back-up is working and ask to reboot unit every day. So I start thinking: what I exactly recommend to this people ?  ( or simple saying that the hell I recommend). So, what the solution - go back to ver 1.00 or just put it to trash ?
Is anyone know something to put in or D-Link firmware only choice ? Warranty .. hell with warranty, I simple want this unit work.

P.S.
6 Units - and no luck ... 100% fail after 3-4 days. Linksys router + DD-WRT --> 386 days up-time !
Will try 1.00 firmware, but I have Hitachi drives :-(
My customer is not, just in case I recomend buy WD drives to my customer :-)

Well, that's not normal operation.  My DNS-321 runs for months at a time, usually the reason for a restart is a power failure that lasts longer than the UPS battery.
