If the dnla server worked and there was an easy way to get my data off the disks I would probably be buying a 4 disk nas from dlink now instead of migrating to my workstation. I was willing to incur the extra expense for that ability. I got the NAS in the first place because I didn't want to leave my workstation on. Making it hard for me to get my data back doesn't make me stick with a dlink product that isn't working for me anymore it makes me not want to migrate to another dlnk product. The dns-320 uses linux to make a software raid right? How many different linux operating systems are out there with iso's ready to boot off a cd/dvd now? Why can't dlink make a how to and if necessary a package to enable people to use any of those linux versions to mount a disk/the disks out of a NAS? It just doesn't make any sense not to. There's a lot less value to any storage solution that doesn't provide for that. Twonky Server is designed to be embedded in network attached storage (NAS), set top box (STB), and router products, and it does not require any development by our customers. It's a given that someday they will need to get it off to put it on something else. The Twonky Server from Lynx Technology enables today’s most advanced media connectivity capabilities in our customers’ products and services. When people put their data in a raid they are usually doing it to keep it safe + they probably have a lot of data. I also think recovery should be made as easy as possible. When you have large amounts of data it only makes sense to move it over the fastest and most reliable interface possible. One more factor, which may or may not be coincidence, is when I enabled the i-tunes server as well, the Twonky folders showed as empty on the clients a few minutes later. I don't see any reason taking a disk out of a nas should be considered a last ditch recovery measure. twonky is finding all media files for now, I changed the to be scanned directory back to the separate subfolders for music, pictures and video.
