First let's confirm the model.
The original Duo (called v1 here)
- says "ReadyNAS Duo" on the front panel
- runs 4.1.x firmware.
The Duo v2
- says "ReadyNAS Duo v2" on the front panel
- runs 5.x firmware.
Other labels are confusing, and frequently lead to v1 owners mistakenly thinking they have a v2.
The default admin password for the original Duo is netgear1. The default admin password for the Duo v2 is password.

And to eBay sellers selling V1 units as V2's. Most "V2" units I see for sale are V1's. Given the part number, which I suspect ends with -100), it shipped with one 500GB drive. AFAIK, no "real" V2 units did so.
