3 weeks ago I purchased a Netgear ReadyNAS and moved all my files onto it. This week I tried to turn on "ReadyNAS Replicate" under the Cloud tab in the LAN http interface. There were some user cred...
Hello redstamp,
Is this a brand new sealed ReadyNAS unit? Or a pre-owned one?
Welcoem to the community!

JennC,
Thanks for the welcome.
This was a new unit purchased from Scan Computers. One of the drive bays had a faulty spring out of the box, so I was initially concerned it was a pre-used NAS, but the box was sealed with the Netgear tape still, so I convinced myself it was a brand new unit and the spring just came lose during transit. I fixed the spring within 5 mins, so no need to return etc.
The firmware wanted updating when I initially plugged it in (1st April 2016), although I forget from and to which versions. And again I updated to the new 6.5.0 on about 20th May 2016.
Thanks,
Jon
