Readynas NV+, fans only when powered on
My home was hit by lightning. I had my Readynas and all other equipment on UPS's. Unfortunately, I believe the strike managed to ride my home ethernet, and blew out a lot of things connected to it. ...
Ok, I found that the readynas I plan to borrow is also an NV+. Now I should have no problem updating the firmware, but my concern is I really don't know what firmware I had on the one that died.
Based on email alerts that I had setup, i see an alert for 4.1.10, and then an email the next day telling me to reboot to complete the install, so I must have installed 4.1.10. Then the next email alerts I see are a couple months of it telling me that 4.1.12 is available, which I never installed. Was there ever a 4.1.11? I don't think I installed it, but if it exists, it is possible. If there never was a 4.1.11, then I know for sure I had 4.1.10.
If I was on 4.1.10 do I need to be on 4.1.10 on the new one in order to avoid an os reinstall, or should it be ok if I just update to the latest offered (4.1.12 I am assuming)?
