Mhhh, I admit that recently i am a bit disappointed by this Ultra2 (non-Pro) !
First Netgear changed the CPU in may 2011 from a 1.8 to a 1.5 Ghz without even changing the specs page on it's own website (i just discovered it last month when looking about the writing speed not as high as expected).
Second now the 4GB seems falls and limited to upgrade to only 2BG (again website specs..)
And they are still selling these ! It's not like it was a product in the end of his "commercial life".
At least i can still enjoy the sturdiness of the metal chassis !
EDIT : here is what i see in SSH with command cat /meminfo :
"address sizes : 36 bits physical, 48 bits virtual"
Could it help to determine if it's 4GB limit or 2GB limit per slot of ddr ?
