Readnas NV+ v2
I'm looking at buying a NV+ v2 4bay
I currently have all my media on a PC located my spare room but with a Baby on the way I am looking at getting something a little smaller than can be stored in a Closet.
Currently the PC runs a MYsql Database which is shared between 5 xbmc clients that hold the Video & Music Library.
It is also used as an always on Media Server and Bit-Torrent Machine.
So my question is will a NV+ V2 allow me to run a MySql Server and run a bit torrent client at the same time as well as stream HD video over a 1gb lan?
Thanks
Mike

- pkraikerAspirantEverything I read suggests that the 256MB memory is the most limiting factor. Install and monitor...
- dj_mikey_kAspirantso an ultra 4 with a RAM upgrade maybe a better choice?
- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredGetting an Ultra 4 and seeing how the Ultra 4 runs with the stock 1GB RAM would be a better choice. All the desktop Intel models (e.g. Ultra) ship with 1GB RAM stock.
The Duo/NV+ v2 ship with 256MB RAM soldered on.
