I forget to take picture, but the ram slot is on the top.

So I put 4gb instead of 1 (G skill F2-6400CL6S-4GBSQ), and it's working great, not issue running memtest, etc.

This picture is for something else, but it does show the memory slot. BTW, Patriot PSD28G800K works well in my Pro-6.

Keep the original memory - Netgear might deny support. It's a good idea to run the memory diagnostic for a while after the upgrade.

Yes I intend to keep the original one :)

This picture is a Pro6 no ?

  The picture was from a service action on the pro (didn't specify pro-6). But it could be a pro-6. I'm not seeing many other pictures (and I don't own a 4).

    That Service Action was for some old ReadyNAS Pro (6-bay) systems shipped long before the Pro Series (Pro 2/4/6) was released.
