Hi guys! Have you used any guide for installing extra memory (breakdown chart etc.)? Also I am going to run kmotion with 4 wireless IP-cameras as well as Sabnzb+/Couchpotato/Sickbeard and stream movies to my Raspberry Pi (running Raspbmc), do you think I will benefit from a memory upgrade? As I read here earlier I am thinking about going for the Kingston 2048MB DDR3 PC3-10600 1333MHz (KVR1333D3S8S9/2G), any objections? I can't seem to find the speed for the stock memory, does anyone know this?

I just opened the side covers, it was easy. Just remember to disconnect from the power grid and make sure you are not static yourself.

Streaming does benefit from more RAM, how much however is hard to tell as it depends on many things. It depends on the LAN-switches and routers, it depends on your clients hardware, etc.

Well, I am still running this memory and it works just fine for me. The speeds of the memory isn't an issue as the BIOS (eg the ReadyNAS firmware/OS) matches the clock speeds to the CPU. It think the Kingston RAM is capable of more than the CPU though, so it is downclocked to match the CPU? Not sure here.

Make sure you are running Radiator 4.2.21 (or later), as I am, because I have not tried the RAM with earlier versions.

EDIT: DO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF ALL THINGS ON THE READYNAS.
