ReadyNAS 428 memory upgrade
I've been looking around and haven't been able to determine if the memory on the 428 is upgradable.
I've seen that the 2 and 4 bay 4-series has soldered on memory. Hoping this is not the case ...
Well.... that sucks
Thanks
Both RN426/RN428 still have extra memry slots for memory upgrade.
RN428 M/B
OK that's good to see
disappointed there are no reviews of the 428 out there.
I'll definitely open it up when I get mine on tuesday and take a look.
I plan on maxing that thing out if I can.
Please check the existing memory module and use the same ECC or non-ECC configuration module to upgrade.
OK got my 428 a day early.
Have tracked down the DIMM info to this

4GB model # TS512MLH72V1H
Amazon has it for $101 (???!!!???)
Crucial has a similarly spec'd stick for $49.99 (much better price)

Curious to know if anyone at Netgear can speak to how much memory the board maxes out at for ECC and non-ECC?
Intel specs on the C3538 CPU say 256GB. I'm not that nuts to put that much ram into this thing. If it had a beefier CPU or a GPU for Plex then maybe I would.
I'm shooting for 16GB at the moment. Guessing that the board maxes out at 32GB or 64GB?
