Readynas NV V1 Using ReadyCloud
I am looking for some help on how to setup readycloud on a old Readynas NV running firmware 4.1.15.
I installed the add on application but I am not able to discover the NAS by pressing the backup button for 5 seconds.
I was able to add an existing email to the authorized account list.
I have the same issue with an old Readynas Pro NAS.
Is it possible to have more than one NAS listed in the web based readycloud account.

I installed readynas remote. It uninstalled my readycloud desktop application. I guess they are not compatable with each other?
Is it possible to connect to a readynas NV and a Readynas 516 and a Readynas Pro at the same time? Each one is running a different level of firmware.
When I installed readynas remote it corrupted my admin password on my readynas 516 and I could no longer get to the admin page. I had to do a firmware update reset in order to log into it again.
Now my windows 10 computer will no longer log into it using file explorer. I can see the device in the network listing but it says windows cannot access device. I can get to the admin page without any problems. Is it possible that installing readynas remote somehow corrupted my windows 10 network settings?
I can still access readynas 516 using readycloud desktop application on a Apple computer without any issues. Is readynas remote available for Apple?
Just a few more things to work thru.
Thanks for the tip on using ReadyNas Remote, I guess.

Just an update to my prior post.
My windows 10 machine just started working on it's own. I changed nothing and it now is able to access the ReadyNAS using file explorer.
I see that windows 10 is not listed as supported for ReadyNAS Remote. Is that going to be a problem?
I still have the question on compatibility between ReadyNAS Remote software and Readycloud Desktop software. Can they both run on the same windows 10 computer.
Thanks.

Readycloud is only compatable with OS 6, you need to use ReadyNAS Remote
