Help! Repeating RAM Error
Hello, I own an NV+. It had been acting finicky for a few weeks (shutting itself off after a few hours of uptime) and eventually (after a memory test that it never finished) stopped booting, coming...
Was that memory you bought on craigslist one from a Duo/NV/NV+. As for memory suggestions I'd suggest looking here: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=110
The pins etc on the memory module need to match the positions on your module that used to work in your NV+.
You could migrate your disks to another NV+ if you like (http://www.readynas.com/kb/faq/boot/how_do_i_migrate_disks_over_from_an_existing_readynas_to_another).
For fastest speeds it'd be best to copy direct from a NV+ to a new NAS. NFS is pretty quick.
The bottleneck on the NV+ mainly isn't the RAM. Upgrading the RAM to 1GB may make a small improvement in performance.
x86 Desktop ReadyNAS (e.g. NVX, Ultra, Pro) already come with 1GB RAM. They have much faster CPUs than the NV+ and hence much better performance
The NVX is a good NAS but it has a 32-bit CPU. Personally I'd go with a Ultra/Ultra Plus/Pro Series device. The Pro Series (Pro 2/4/6) has 5 years warranty (vs 3 years on Ultra/Ultra Plus). Pro Series has business features.
