'lo all.
Just grabbed this:

Icybox NAS 9000.
I've popped in the IDE drive, connected it through the router, and can happily log into the admin function. I've formatted the disk, and can see the 'public' folder, for SMB sharing.
So, I'm trying to use the thing now.
I can map a drive to the public folder (or to any of the other folders I create) and view them, but the moment I try and create any files, or folders using the Windows Explorer interface, it grinds to a halt, and freezes (the window shows 'not responding')
About 2/3 minutes later, the windows free up, and the network drive is 'disconnected' - a few more seconds later, and they're reconnects, and I can browse - but no folder there, or files have been moved.
Looks like it's trying to freeze up when doing things there.
Any hints?
I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium - I'll have a go from a networked XP machine later on...
