Thanks for the response. This is fine if one wants to play around as a Hobbyist, but certainly not an option for a client site as the thread (and you) state
This is UNSUPPORTED by NETGEAR. Do so at your own risk, without support from NTGR.
In Short: The ReadyNas series used to be all about convenience and without having to mess about. This new OS's introduces a dilemma.....for those that already have the PRO Series. Netgear need to introduce the new OS to them if they seriously want current customers to add more NAS's to their systems (in my opinion only). I for one wouldn't introduce a new OS NAS to my systems. Its easier to just buy a second hand Pro series as a spare. Bad news for Netgear sales.
Late Edit: Having just read the Thread about being able to run the new OS on a current system. Yeah right..................sounds like a lot of trouble for something that doesn't work very well! I wouldn't even attempt it.
