ReadyNAS 102 + single disks (non raid)
Hi, I've been reading the software manual of the ReadyNAS 102 and can't determine if the device meets my needs. I am trying to determine if I can put in 2x 3TB drives and have each drive be indepe...

Thanks Stephen,
The software manual doesn't really say how to accomplish this. Unless I'm missing somethng it only references XRaid and Flex-Raid. Can you point me in the right direction. I've got the same WD drives, just waiting on the NAS purchase so I can install them. The compatability document found here (http://www.netgear.com/home/products/storage/prosumer/RN10200.aspx#three) does show compatabilty.
SInce you have hands-on experience with RN102 I hope you can answer some more questions. My win 7 computer has an SSD as its main drive and 2x WD Green storage drives (just about full) and I stream mostly 1080p but also some 720p .mkv files using Serviio or Tversity depending on the device. Is the 1.2GHz CPU in the 10200 sufficient? I was considering the QNAP TS-219p II as it has a 2GHz processor. The QNAP is like $90 more than the Netgear. Would it be better to mount the netgear drives in windows using iSCSI and continue using Serviio and TVersity?
Thanks again,
