The music scan part seems to be about 10-15 minutes faster in 7.6.1, but the rest is broken. I use 2TB Samsungs in a ThermalTake toaster hooked to a eSata PCI-express card on my "movie machine." Vastly superior to any USB attach. Alas, the TeraStation Pro's are raid-5 and attached to a pure gigabit loop so with full-duplex and jumbo frames, their performance is very adequate as the music store. I use VortexBox precisely because the webUI and scanning are so dramatically faster than winders. No VortexBox appliance is involved, only VB virtual machines running in VMWare Workstation.
