I did wonder the same, but apparently they had snow a few weeks ago. It's from a dealer in Ayrshire.

is the 320 the 177bhp version? If so they are brilliant to tune, 220-230hp and +60 ft/lb is easy.  :driver:

I think it's the 184bhp version.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Yep, it's a facelifted car so 184bhp. It's not quick by any means though.

Synology DS1511+ 5 Bay NAS

Plan is to stick 5x 3TB HDDs in there and RAID 5 them all ;)



I have a 4TB Drive at the moment which I will connect into the back of the NAS via eSATA to backup the most important data to keep off-site, just in case......

Will install a couple of IP cameras around the house in future as well, with the data being saved straight back to the NAS....so much that can be done with the drive... ;)

Also just purchased 3 of these:



Getting 3 in there means I can get my RAID 5 array going, then will eventually buy the last two later down the line  :happy2:

lol!!

Nah I dont have much data, but I can do a lot with this unit - host a website off of it, FTP, and so on.
At some point I want to get some IP cameras on the driveway, maybe one indoors etc, as the NAS has 'Surveillance Station' built in, so can save video etc straight to the NAS.
Also, it has a torrent manager - so can download torents directly to it overnight etc, while my laptop/computer are switched of  :wink:

Remember RAID 5 means you pretty much lose the space of a disc for the backup/redundancy.
Once I have 5x3TB drives in there, equalling 15TB, it should give me about 10TB useable space - that will probably last me a lifetime!
