ReadyNAS Device Compatibility List
ReadyNAS Device Compatibility List can be found here. Edited March 27, 2009.
After a 48 hours non-stop data upload I think my NAS is okay. :)
ReadyNAS NV+ RND4000 1024Mb RAM v4.1.7.T49 beta "experimental" firmware with factory default settings
Cage 1: WD20EARS-00MVWB0 (4kb sector, 3 platter)
Cage 2: WD20EARS-00MVWB0 (4kb sector, 3 platter)
Cage 3: WD20EARS-00S8B1 (4kb sector, 4 platter)
Cage 4: WD20EARS-00S8B1 (4kb sector, 4 platter)
TP-Link TL-WR1043ND router 4-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with "N" WireLess and Cat5E cables (no Jumbo Frame support)
PC: Intel Q9550@3570MHz, 2x2Gb DDRII-1120MHz, 2x32Gb Samsung SSD in RAID 0 for system,
2x750GB Samsung HDD in RAID 0 for applications, Atheros AR8121 Gigabit Ethernet (has Jumbo Frame suppor)
Acer RevoView mediaplayer unit with 250GB internal HDD
IOMeter results are almost same like "official" results, 31MB/sec read, 24MB/sec write.
The mounted network drive performance via Total Commander and drag and drop copy is around 16-18MB/sec.
After so many tries and changes I have to accept, this unit has a relatively slow hardware,
that is why shows a moderate performance in Windows 7 x64, but in summary I am satisfied with this super NAS! :)
