Therefore if the conversion process doesn't prevent the Ex2FUSE update from working, hopefully someone should be able to create neat bootdisk for an x86 PC that will have everything you need mount a perfectly working ReadyNAS Duo HDD ...

This might help to resolve Saxguy's issue and enable people to use the existing sata ports on your mainboard (rather than a Sata to USB cable)
