Migrate from NV+ to RNDX4000
Hi, We currently have a Ready NAS+ with 4 x WDC WD20EARS (2GB each) drives using XRAID-2. We would like to move the existing NAS to a different set of users and want to replace it with the RNDX4...
BTW - if you have not purchased the NVX, while it is a good unit, it is also a discontinued unit. It is an x-86 based unit (32 bit) while all the current Ultra/Ultra Plus/Pro series are 64 bit x-86 units and are a bit faster. While the changeover can be a bit time consuming (it took me the better part of the day) it will be worth it in the long run as you will benefit from increased speed and future growth. The NV+ will never be able to support larger than 2TB drives while the x-86 can support 3TB current (none larger on the market yet) and should go up from there as drives grow.
If you go with the NVX, make sure your vendor gives a nice discount. Shop around and see what the prices for the Pro 4 (RNDP4000) is. It would have similar features, but with a dual core Atom D510 processor.
