RAIDiator 6.4.0 on older hardware? (Active Directory feature)
Good day, I have a ReadyNAS NV+ v2, currently running RAIDiator 5.3.11 with four WD Enterprise 2TB drives. It works quite well, but I've noticed the Active Directory support in this version of RAIDiat...
OS6 cannot be run on your NAS.
The new NAS would have a different OS and different filesystem so simply moving the disks across is not an option.
You could either:
1. Get new disks for the new NAS and use backup jobs to copy the data across. See e.g. http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/29733/~/how-do-i-back-up-data-from-a-raidiator-5-system-to-a-readynas-os-6-system%3F
2. Backup your data, verify backup is good, move your disks across, do a factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything) then restore your data from backup.
I have, since I posted, been successful in enabling Active Directory on 5.3.11. Problem solved! Thanks!!
