My ReadyNAS Story . . .
Day 1... After a month going back and forth between manufacturers, and then finally between the Pro 2, 4, and 6, I order the 6 from Amazon on Tuesday along with two Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB SATA...
Sadly, my excitement originally expressed is long gone. The unit didn't last longer than about 30 days before it started hanging. For about 6 weeks I'd have to bounce it daily, let it resync the disks, and it'd be fine. The issue occurring would be that the device wouldn't respond to any network request, and when I went to it and hit POWER, nothing would happen - the display would remain blank (instead of the normal warning that if I hit it again, the unit would power down).
Now I just keep it powered it off and only turn it on if there's some file I need on it. I've moved back most of the non-media data to the laptops hanging around the house, and I'm sure I've lost some wife acceptance factor for future gizmos I want to spend my money on.
