Ok, forgive me if this is a terribly noobie question! I'm planning on flashing my firmware, and their are two commands, one for removing the ss and one for not, could you explain to me what this means.

i believe what your talking about is the two seperate firmwares available to you.. if you are going to use your drive to make backups use the one to remove the ss.. if jnot use the other one..

So they both play backups? Is the one that doesnt remove SS for if you plan on using hotswap method for backups?BTW thanks!

I hope this is not against the rules but, http://www.nextag.com/Verbatim-8-5GB-240-5...177/prices-html
