Anyway you can migrate your array over to the replacement unit that NetGear sends you.
What firmware was running on the NVX Pioneer when it failed? If you can put a spare disk (not from your array) in the replacement unit and ensure the firmware is at least as up to date as what was on the NVX Pioneer. Then power down, remove the spare disk and migrate your disks across as per http://www.readynas.com/kb/faq/boot/how_do_i_migrate_disks_over_from_an_existing_readynas_to_another
Thank you mdgm for the reply.
However they are issuing a ReadyNAS Pro 4 as a replacement unit (my NVX is no longer in production). The Pro 4 has a 64-bit Intel Atom D510 CPU in it while my dead unit has a 32-bit Intel Tolopai CPU, so if I've understood correctly, the array will not be transferrable to the new unit because of the different architechture.
Correct me if I'm wrong!
