They have just released the new style drive too... Which looks
"different"
to say the least :-)

I'll confirm tonight, but I'm pretty sure mine has a fan in - I can
certainly hear one!

You should be able to create a volume using XP/Win2k's disk manager... I'd
investigate Dynamic Disks if I were you :-)

That's GREAT if they have - because I want to use these as an easy way to
bolt on more storage for the media server as my needs increase (about 6Gb
per movie) without having to open it up and stick in more drives and RAID
cards!

I'm hoping I can just mount a load of external drives into an NTFS
directory.
