Search Option not Visible in Settings
Running firmware 6.9.4, so up-to-date.
I'm trying to turn on Search, so I can search files on my NAS.
I've followed the instructions ->System->Settings->Services, but there is no search option to enable under settings?
Any assistance appreciated.
That could be the issue: ReadyNAS 104.

You should see a "File Search" button - on my NAS it is the last service on the second row - right next to AntiVirus.
Are you saying that isn't shown on your system->settings->services list?

Have you enabled it in System/Overview ?

FWIW, I see it on my RN202 in system->settings->services even though it is disabled on system->overview. However, that NAS is running 6.9.4.
Looking at haigha's screenshot - the only service missing seems to be File Search.
Is this the RN316? If not, what NAS model?
- OOM-9NETGEAR ExpertNot sure on your model yet, but files search is not available to the 100 series units.
