Yeah, they're not RasPi low-energy, but they're bloody good.

I thought the upper limit was 8GB? Does the BIOS update raise it to 16GB?

I boobed and bought the wrong discs (low-energy "green") for my RAID1.
Not gone wrong yet, but live and learn.

Have to keep an eye-out for the cash-back offer appearing again.
