How to Setup a readyNas RN102 2023
I have recently bought a second hand readynas with intent to start a little home media server/cloud storage for my files. Im having a hard time trying to work out to to start this now with the knowle...
Netgear advertised the ReadyNAS as a sort of "local cloud", a ridiculous concept because they are mutually exclusive. As such, they pushed using ReadyCloud (IMHO, to give the illusion that it really is cloud storage), but they have also always had a local admin interface.
The easiest way to access it is to download RAIDar and select "Admin Page" from it. A NAS is not a "set and forget" device, and running RAIDar is a good way to monitor it, though a periodic "check-in" using the admin interface is also something I recommend.
Thanks for the reply, do you know how to use raidar with it? Ive downloaded it and raidar cant discover it. I've put a drive in the nas and connected it to my wifi, but I get a continuous blue blinking light not sure what that means?
