"OS6" - a question or three
First, a direct question: I'm currently running my Pro BE's with 5 or 6 disks using "x-raid2" and "dual redundancy." (RAID6 with the xraid2 expansion scheme.) I downloaded the manual for one of...
Having one platform that runs on both ARM and x86 is good for users, not just for Netgear.
I totally agree. It is also better for app developers.
What you said about the built in checksum is interesting, did you enable it ? I'd be curious about the performance implication for a 102/104. I know the antivirus is already a killer for performance with the weak ARM CPU, I would expect checksum to be even worst.
Snapshots is definitely a wonderful feature.
BTRFS has some neat tricks in his pockets and it's not excluded that Netgear put them to use in some 6.3 or 6.4 update. I think the compression system already uses the BTRFS mechanism for example. Since Netgear has some good relationship with BTRFS team, I'm pretty sure we will get "bleeding edge" (when stable and tested, so not that bleeding edge but still...).
I have the feeling that Netgear made choices with OS6 for the long run.
