I currently am using one drive of a multi-disk Dell Powervault745 as a staging device for ARCserve 11.5 with no problems other than I do not have enough room to keep the sessions as long as I would like. I created a share on the disk and I point to the share as a FSD using UNC. I can't add larger disks, so I was planning on purchasing a 1 TB Adaptec SNAP server to use for staging. I planned on creating a share as I did on the Powervault745. I did read on another post that the Adaptec 520 is not certified although Adaptec lists that Arcserve works with the SNAP devices. Should I look for something else? I have limited funds and the SNAP was reasonable.

Not certified? well not certified for what? for NAS? thats different since that what you want to do. There is a specific list of devices tested and certified compatible with the NAS option but all you want to do is use it as disk storage and I don't see any reason at all why it should not work out just fine for you.
