YES it runs.
It succesfully booted on the 3rd boot attempt, after that every boot following upon powerdown/-up goes perfectly.
(1st and 2nd boot attempt, were accompanied with beeps and disk spin-up and spin-down cycles)
Installed firmware version: 1.2.9.fw fvdw-sl 8.1.beta1

Am moving data on it as we speak, its looking great so far.
Have no need for any special features so far, just file storage/backup.
Downloading is being handled by an Synology NAS running SabNZBd+.
Thanks for all support so far.
Will go and document it all, these kind of things are not done daily, :? not by me anyway.
