Hi, all I recently created a small Windows app for ReadyNAS series of NAS, which will let user to start, monitor and shutdown a ReadyNAS system from task tray.

Do you have any screenshots? There is another thread on this forum, "Vista Gadget" that was started in 2007: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=13793 -- unfortunately, it did not appear to get any traction though many people appeared to want one (ie, all us posters were not programmers!).

I like the Win7 Gadgets. I don't use many, but I think they are a great concept and would love it if somebody could create a ReadyNAS gadget. I have:
Weather for my zip
Network Meter
CPU Usage
Hard drive usage (I map my NAS root drive, so I can tell its free space - but that is all :( )

I intend to look into both your app and DotBlog's (though his seems to be a browser page; with just 1 NAS, I could keep my FrontView open instead). I just want something my peripheral vision can glance at - like my CPU temps/RAM/network.

In any event, thanks for this effort! There is a Yahoo! Gadget, but I do not want to install it on my PC as I had issues with the Yahoo Gadget "engine" sucking memory & CPU on my previous XP install. Maybe that can be ported?
